About the Item

This beautiful dining set comprises a Regency Revival Jupe style dining table mid-20th century in date, with the matching set of ten Regency style dining chairs. The table has a solid mahogany top that has five additional leaves that can be added around the circumference. It is very stable as it has a circular mahogany central base raised on downswept splay legs that terminate in brass lion's paw sabots and castors, which give the table it's superb stability. You pull out some slides, see photos, from the sides of the table and fit the leaves on them by sliding them onto the slides and securing them with brass clips, which are located underneath. With the leaves attached around the circumference, it is 215 cm, approx 7ft, in diameter, and could seat 10 people in comfort. With the leaves removed it is 154 cm, approx 5ft, in diameter, and could seat 6 to 8 people. It has an attractive matching mahogany baize lined cabinet in which the leaves and clips are housed when not in use. This fascinating table illustrates all the very best elements of English cabinet-making combined with the remarkable burst of inventiveness of the Industrial Revolution. It was not until John Johnstone and Robert Jupe patented their ingenious design in March 1835 for an expanding round table, that round dining tables, which had suffered from the problem of not offering flexibility of seating, could compete with the established rectangular extending dining tables. The matching set of ten Regency Revival Swag Back chairs are made of solid mahogany and have been upholstered in a sumptuous olive green alkantara fabric. There is no mistaking the fine craftsmanship of this handsome set, which is certain to become a treasured addition to your furniture collection, and a talking point with guests at meal times. Condition: In excellent condition the table having been beautifully cleaned and polished and the chairs polished and reupholstered in our workshops, please see photos for confirmation.

The original Jupe expanding table includes a table top that is divided into a number of sections. Each section is connected to an underlying frame structure, such that when the table top is rotated, the sections move radially outward, increasing the effective size of the table top. Once the table top has been rotated to move the table top sections outward, leaves are inserted between the sections, so as to fill in the spaces created by the outward movement of the sections. Because the table top sections diverge and move radially outward from a central point, the Jupe table top retains its shape in its expanded configuration. The Jupe table has now become one of the most valuable and sought after antiques. Original Jupe tables in good condition may sell for up to $350,000 at the time of writing. However, despite its popularity, the Jupe table has been very difficult to mass produce, because its workings are both extremely complex and entirely handcrafted. For example, the frame structure that supports the table top sections in the Jupe table is comprised of many individual beam structures that are secured together to form the frame. Each of those beams must be individually made and assembled to exacting tolerances in order to ensure that the table top sections will move freely and mate in the center of the table top to form a substantially contiguous table surface in both the contracted and expanded configurations. The manufacture of such a structure is time-consuming and is not conducive to rapid production. Other aspects of the Jupe table design also make the design difficult to implement. For example, in at least some of the existing examples of functioning Jupe tables, the pivot for the table top is a threaded rod that runs the entire length of the table pedestal. That is an extremely difficult and time-consuming configuration to replicate.
