Drop Leaf

Sometimes a drop leaf table is all you need to get that English look. Elegant and practical, drop leaf tables provide a versatile option for side tables, expanding to display more objects or support additional seating.

Bar Scene

Bar seating are some of the most difficult pieces to find. While a contemporary stool may look nice, it may not be the right height or comfortable. Well-worn antique stools on the other hand, always look good at a bar, no matter the aesthetic - and are aged to suit the body. Thats why having a wide variety of antique bar seating is always a good idea; one never knows which seat will fit perfectly.
