[QUOTE="Frank_138, post: 2641215, member: 16300"]Hello Everybody, last week I picked this unusual Gateleg Table up in a thrift store in a very small village in northern Germany. I liked the look of it and especially the forged hinges (see photos). The Table is very low with only 71 cm / 28 inch height. I think it was originally even lower, because those round pieces at the bottom of the legs seem to be later added on - maybe to replace worn/broken bottom pieces or there were none in the first place. What do you think? Is this even an English table? Or is this a German/European interpretation of a Gateleg? What do you think how old this table is?
