Drop leaf table

This table is simple and sturdy, a practical solution for multiple uses and quite popular throughout the American colonies in the 18th century.
Its hinged leaves are supported by swinging legs with offset turned feet. The aprons are are straight and aside from the interlocking molding (rule joint) at the hinge of the top, the table is unadorned and totally functional in design.
