This incredibly rare French dining suite for 12 is perhaps one of the most beautiful and desirable we have ever had the pleasure to offer. Crafted of the finest Cuban mahogany, this dining suite is comprised of an elegant and versatile table with a center pedestal supporting three leaves and two ends that, when joined, extend over 11 feet in length. The table comfortably accommodates 12 guests who can enjoy their meal seated in sumptuously upholstered matching armchairs. Intricately cast ormolu medallions, banding and leg caps add to the luxurious feel of this wondrous set. French dining sets of this size and grandeur are tremendously rare, and to find one in such exceptional, complete condition is quite extraordinary.
