THE FEEL OF OLD WOOD: MIDCENTURY DINING TABLES

Dear All

Vintage dining table adds warmth and character to a home. The feel of old wood, the gathering of family and friends around it , the conversations that have taken place and the memories that were built upon it, are truly invaluable.

Below is our latest collection of midcentury dining tables, circa 1960's. They are made of solid teak wood and have been beautifully restored,  some waiting to be part of the family.

Rare midcentury dining table with metal legs.  We had recromed the legs,

 not just spray painted it. The rubber studs at the bottom of the metal legs 

are still the original ones. L148 x D100 x H74cm.  $1600

The dining table is 198cm when extended.

A side view of the table above.

Midcentury dining table for eight is really difficult to find.  On request by a local boutique hotel, we custom made an 8-seater midcentury modern dining table 

using old teak wood.   On seeing the beauty of the table top, they do away 

the idea of putting glass on it.

VINTAGE FURNITURE - REPAIRED, RESTORED AND REUPHOLSTERED

Dear All

Since my last posting on Synti Leong's house, there has been quite a number of interests on the vintage, retro pieces that we have. We have quite a good range of them, I think. Display cabinets, sideboards, beds, wardrobes, dressers, wooden sofas, bedside tables, coffee tables, chairs and dining tables. Some of them in Kuala Lumpur, some in Singapore and some with my restorer in Malacca. Should you be interested in any of the vintage types, just let me know and I should be able to send you images of what's available. No obligation, not to worry. And we do move them across borders.

In fact, this Monday, we bringing down quite a number of fully restored pieces for my Singapore based customers: Jennifer's retro 60's dining table with new formica top, Adeline's retro sofa set, Linda's retro armchair, Jeremy's 3-seater vintage sofa, Corinne's retro sideboard, Caroline's 1920's antique wardrobe, Ivy's vintage queen size bed with attached bedside cabinets and dining table, Mohd's art deco and retro sideboards, Cristina's and Suriah's wing chairs and ottomons, Saifuddin's art deco's writing desks and wardrobe, Hwee Bin's repaired kopitiam chairs, Cindy's retro bedside table with vintage white formica, Ting Hway's upholstered dining chairs and cushion seats.
