Reserved: Paul McCobb Planner Group Drop - Leaf Dining Set Table And 4 Chairs
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:18939689 | Style: Mid-Century Modern |
| Featured Refinements: Paul McCobb Design | Type: Dining Set |
Beautiful mid century modern drop leaf dining table with three 12-inch extension leaves and 4 chairs, designed by Paul McCobb in his Planner Group Series of furniture. Simple, straight lines in the mid century or Shaker aesthetic.
The table would work well in a small dining room or apartment, with huge expansion options when needed. With the drop leaves down, the footprint of the table is only 22 x 40 inches. With the drop leaves turned up, the table top is 53 x 40 inches. Then, wit...h either one, two, or three extensions leaves inserted, the table can expand to almost 90 inches when you're entertaining. The table is 29 inches tall.
The table and chairs are in very good vintage condition, still sturdy and solid. The table top, chair seats, and chair backs have been stripped, sanded, stained and sealed, but still retain much of their patina gained from 65 years of age. They have a few small scuffs and dings, but generally look excellent -- ready to go in your home and be used. Other notes: the 3 leaves are a slightly lighter color and don't show the age patina that the rest of the table shows (probably stored out of the sunlight for most of their life -- see photos). One chair seat has a hairline surface crack that doesn't affect its integrity -- still sturdy and strong, ready to be used for decades to come. The chairs and one of the extension leaves have the McCobb Planner Group paper tag still attached underneath. I'm 100% sure the chairs are Paul McCobb, and I'm fairly sure (95%) the table is McCobb. The leaves have a McCobb sticker, but on the sliding extension trestle underneath the table, it has a stamped impression that says "Jefferson Table." However, numerous other dealers refer to this exact table as a McCobb Planner Group table, and the 1955 Planner Group brochure shows an identical dropleaf table with the same dimensions. For these reasons, I'm fairly sure it's the McCobb Planner Group dropleaf table. I mention this only because I was a little surprised to see this "Jefferson Table" stamp. In any case, it's a classic mid century designed set that will work well in any setting.
