    Hello,

    I would like help identifying this dining table and chairs set. I am not sure if it is an antique, but the underside looks old. Maybe 60's?

    The table has extendable pull-out drop-leaves. I'm having trouble finding anything similar online. Please let me know if you have any idea from looking at the attached photos (obviously the white bench is not part of the set)

    Please help! and thanks!
    Shannon

    I think your table used to be a drafting table . Your chairs are probably from the 1920s. They look great together.

    Has a Danish Modern look to it.
    Are you in the US?
    Does the top actually tip up or just look like it should? If it doesn't move, I don't think this was a drafting table.

    Welcome to the board. People come and go at all hours so be sure to check back.

    It's hard to tell because the pictures are so small. Would guess mid-20th century. The klismos-type chairs probably belonged to a dining room set of similar vintage. They look good together in that first photo.

    While there is some similarity to a drafting table, think this is a modern import. Probably from the 90s when there were all kinds of modern takes on arts and crafts design. Chairs appear to be older.

    Thank you! I have had family say that it could be danish or swedish midcentury. It does not tip- so it definitely was not a drafting table. It lays flat on top of two leaves that pull out on both sides. Thanks for your help!
