Size: 47 3/4" wide, and 22 1/2" deep closed, 2 leaves at 22 1/2, and 29" tall. Fully opened the table measures 66” by 48” Big enough to seat 6.

Condition: Excellent overall condition. Fine French polished top. Typical use and wear marks consistent with age and use. Refinished surface, with a French polish. Scuffs and dings in the tops surface, are typical use and wear marks. See less
