Elegant Extendable Dining Table & 6 Chairs

Jenny from Hillcrest

This is a lovely, elegant, solid wood table, that seats 6 in it's standard position, but does extend further. When I bought it, I was told that it was Mahogany, & that I was the third owner.
The extension is in excellent condition, with no colour contrast with the standard top- ie there has been no wood fading.
6 comfortable chairs are part of this auction, & the padded areas are covered in a velvet-like fabric.
The legs of both the table & the chairs are turned & elegant.
It is not a modern table. I was told that it was 'old' when I bought it privately.
All joins are in a solid condition, no exposure to borer, from a non-smoking home. It is a very comfortable height for eating & socialising.
There are 2 small flaws, which is reflected in the price; there is a fine line like a pulled thread on the upright of 1 chair, & on another chair there is a piece of wood missing (from before my time), which I doubt would be noticed once covered in either perhaps a matching stain or rubbed with a walnut.

Measurements;
Length= 150.5 cm
Extended length= 205cm
Width= 100cm
Height= 72.5 cm
To the chair seat= 49.5cm
To the top of the chair back= 103.5cm.

I am selling as I am downsizing.
No other items shown in the photos are for sale.

Price: $300

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
