This is a very large and heavy tiger oak rectangular table, with four carved griffin or lion paw legs at each corner, connected to a central pedestal. The pedestal splits into two halves when the three leaves are inserted, revealing a center supporting leg under the leaves. The table is 54 inches square without leaves, and grows to 54 inches wide by 123 inches long with all three leaves inserted. The table top sits at 29.5 inches tall. Because of the central leg, the table is very sturdy even when fully extended. Excellent condition, with a few very minor blemishes on the table top. No identifying marks or labels.
