A request from the table afficiando of CC...

Other option is to get yourself to your local auction house and have a sniff around the furniture offered in a general sale. If it's a leaf table you're after, then you can pick up an early 20th Century one for not a lot of money. And it will be solid wood.

I'd guess early 70's. The style has aged well, a sort of faux Parker-Knoll. If I were in the market I'd have it.

I don't know much about table making but I'd buy it, looks a nice solid table. Probably is veneer but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Antiques worth tens of thousands are often veneer. It's not going to be chipboard underneath.

I'll sit on it…

May I say that is an excellent way of testing the quality of a table?

It looks like a G Plan to me. My Gran had one very similar - if it's less than £100 I'd go for it. How much are they asking?
