A large Spanish carved walnut centre table late 17th century

the rectangular top above splayed spirally-twisted and block legs joined by a shaped walnut and wrought iron stretchers, on flattened bun feet

Old marks, chips and scratches commensurate with age. Some water staining to the top, which has some minor patches and evidence of old very minor worm, which appears to be no longer active. There is a construction crack running across the whole length of the top, which shows evidence of previous restoration but is opening up again and can easily be filled. Some staining to the legs generally and old restorations to the feet, some of which have been quite worn from normal usage. Rare due to exceptional length. In otherwise good original condition.
