Featured Drop Leaf Table--any info appreciated

I inherited a tiger maple drop leaf table.
It has turned legs on the four corners of the single board table top and wood peg construction. There are some repairs and it has never been refinished.
There are rhombus pieces placed perpendicular on the underside edges of both single board leaves.
Its origin is Ohio, USA, and it is 19th century. I can provide more photos soon.

 

The market here for a wide board table like that is pitiful on a good day. Some antique dealers in Ohio might know the local market. Country antiques i"m told do better there.

 

Looks like a lovely, useful table.
The furniture gurus here will want to see photos of the underside, joinery, etc.
JMHO but I wouldn't call yours a harvest table, it looks more like a regular drop-leaf dining table. Traditionally, a harvest table is long and narrow and the drop leaves are along the long sides of the table, not at each end.
But you don't give measurements of your table so I'm just judging from the one photo you provide.

Thank you for your reply. I agree, it doesn't seem long enough to be a Harvest table. It does seem to have some unique characteristics--and no maker marks, unfortunately. I'll upload more photos soon.

 

We still sell quite a few drop leaf dining tables at our estate sales because they do not take up a lot of room and are great for the young people in small spaces or to use during the holidays for extra guests. We aren't getting tons of money but they will sell if prices accordingly.
***Edited to add that we typically price them for $125 but condition plays a big factor. These pieces usually have water stains and surface scratches from being used over 50+ years.

 

A little more unusual in maple but terribly out of style right now. I can pick tables similar to this for as little as $10.00. Have posted several to this thread....

Just posted this one in cherry offered for $10.00 this past week. (last page of above thread)



My semi-rural Midwest market is notoriously cheap so you will probably do better in other areas. Being in or near a big city is always helpful.

 

having customers with money helps too. (leaves me out. )

 

Just to clarify the reason for my comment above...
OP's original thread title called the item a harvest table but OP appears to have now edited that out.
My comment wasn't as random as it now appears, LOL.

 

I can't tell size, exactly, but if those boards are each one-piece, and all clean grain, then that was an old tree. Not many of those trees left anymore.

 

I'm sorry if my edit caused confusion. I changed it because of what you said--so your comment was not random - it was helpful. Thanks! I will try better next time.

 

That's what I figured based on poking around the internet! Most likely made when old growth forests were ubiquitous, probably making it early 19th C.
Evidently Michigan has no old growth forests left because of massive logging followed by state-wide forest fires as a result of the logging leaving behind slash/fuel for easy combustion. Ohio might be different in terms of dating old growth forests there.

 

..if not by much. Not any more. Some old growth trees do turn up in odd spots.

 

No problem! I was just explaining to those who may not have seen your original title why I was talking about harvest tables.
