We are not sure of the type of wood , it may be walnut although the people we purchased it from said they thought it was a fruit wood

The original leaves have long been lost the the last owners had several leaves made at some considerable expense. The new leaves are made in MDF and have been cut and shaped at the edges to match the original table

It was and is common practice on the continent for the extension leaves to be made of a plainer simpler material as when extended , for company a table cloth would be used and there for there was no need for the leaves to be decorative

We have been able to get the table extended to a maximum of 120" , but there are 4 leaves , 3 different sizes so the options are numerous

You will see that to add stability to the table when extended 2 pairs of legs drop down
