70s G Plan Fresco Teak Gateleg Dining Table

The public’s love affair with Mid Century teak dining tables shows no sign of ending and why would it, with examples such as this ? If your house or apartment simply does not have the necessary space for a large table at all times, this vintage rectangular teak dining table gives you the perfect combination of space-saving design, beauty and durability. Seating 4 or even 6, or 2 when half up, perhaps against a wall, it would also make a great desk space or workstation.

Easily stored away, the gateleg table was first introduced in England in the 16th century. The table top has a fixed section and two hinged leaves, which, when not in use, fold down below the fixed section to hang vertically making this table a perfect choice for those with limited space.

Designed in the 1960’s by Victor B Wilkins, this formed part of G Plan’s well known “Fresco Collection“ of furniture.

The table is solid and sturdy and in good working order; it has been thoroughly degreased, lightly sanded, re oiled and polished. The red G Plan label is still present on the underside of the table.

The frame and legs are constructed from solid aframosia teak with beautiful grain detail. The top is teak veneer, again showing great grain detail, one of the best I have ever had in stock ! There are some light surface scratches but only what you might expect from normal wear and tear on a vintage table. Please take time to look at our photos as these form an important part of our description, usually highlighting the worst of any damage or flaws. If you would like further images or information please contact us and we will do our best to help.

CONDITION

Please bear in mind that all our vintage and retro items have had a life before you purchase them (sometimes quite a long one!) therefore they will show signs of wear and use, these may include knocks, dents and scratches, bumps and scuffs which are commensurate with age and previous use. We never sell items that we wouldn’t be happy to have in our own homes and provide images detailing any significant damage or unusual wear. Please carefully read the details and examine the images prior to purchase. All our items have been thoroughly cleaned and de-greased, re-oiled and polished (where necessary) and are fit for purpose. If you’re unsure, or would like some more information, please contact us, we’re always happy to help.

FREE DELIVERY DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY APPLY TO ANY SALE ITEMS.

Safely delivering items you purchase in a timely fashion is both our priority and also one of the most challenging aspects of our business.

Wherever possible, we try to offer free kerbside delivery, contact-free, to most mainland UK addresses, either by ourselves or via our dedicated, trusted, couriers.

Exclusions to free delivery apply, including where tolls or congestion zone fees apply, for which there will be an additional charge.

Free delivery does not apply to locations a long way away from our location in Cambridge or to areas of mainland UK not routinely covered by our trusted couriers - if this applies to your purchase, we will simply charge you what we are charged for delivery, less any Etsy fees, and notify you of this as soon as practicable after the sale goes through.

We are able to package and export items beyond mainland UK and have done so as far afield as Hong Kong and New Zealand. We regularly export to Northern Ireland and Eire and the majority of Europe. Please contact us directly for a tailored quotation.
