{"product_id":"restored-queensland-walnut-and-blackwood-dining-table-c-1960","title":"Starburst Dining Table in Queensland Walnut, c. 1960","description":"\u003cp\u003eBook-matched sunburst veneer work like this, with sixteen leaves of Queensland walnut radiating from a single centre point, was the kind of cabinetmaking usually reserved for a workshop's showpiece rather than standard production, which is part of why tables like this rarely survive intact. It sits on a solid blackwood base with slender tapered legs, pairing two distinct Australian timbers in a combination that was common in the best furniture of the period but genuinely uncommon to find surviving in one piece today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe table has been fully restored in the studio, with the veneer stabilised and refinished using Oli Natura hardwax oil, a penetrating finish that sits into the timber rather than sealing over it, so the grain reads true and any future marks can be spot repaired rather than requiring a full refinish. There are a few small marks consistent with genuine age, such as very minor edge repairs, all of which have already been carried out. The table remains structurally sound throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 75 cm high and 130 cm in diameter, it seats four comfortably, and works equally well as a round dining table or an oversized centre table in a larger living space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe handle a lot of mid-century pieces through the studio, and we have not come across another sunburst top quite like this one! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExcellent restored condition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fox \u0026 Wedge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47560583020578,"sku":null,"price":3450.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/4416\/3106\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_0e9e76ba-b059-457f-a131-49ee6297a5bc.png?v=1789441387","url":"https:\/\/www.foxandwedge.com.au\/products\/restored-queensland-walnut-and-blackwood-dining-table-c-1960","provider":"Fox \u0026 Wedge","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
