The previous owners really didn’t want to part with this but since we bought almost their entire home, they were willing to include this table.

If you’ve been in the market for a superior Tiger Maple drop leaf table, we highly recommend this one for your consideration. Period Tiger Maple tables in this good condition are rare in their own right, and the extremely bold grain and scalloped leaves elevate the table into the upper echelon of early American drop leaf tables.the table is in wonderful condition with our only notes being minor surface wear, a small tear out at one hinge, and a slight cupping to one leaf.
