Price History
Description
Design. This Ercol originals drop leaf table takes inspiration from the 50’s, with its splayed beech legs and solid elm wood top. This table is perfect for smaller spaces thanks to its space saving flexibility of drop leaves on either side. When fully opened it seats 4 with ease or even a snug 6. This is a classic design that creates a simple and contemporary look. This drop leaf table can be finished in a variety of wood finishes and paint colours to suit your individual interior styles.
Our Stylist Says
I love this drop leaf dining table because of its versatile design and practical appeal. The dark oak finish adds warmth and depth, making it suitable for both contemporary and traditional interiors. Its clever drop leaf feature maximises space, perfect for smaller dining rooms or multi-use areas, while the extended size offers ample surface when needed. Styling tips include pairing it with mid-century chairs or upholstered benches for contrast, and adding chic accessories like a simple runner or ceramic centrepiece to keep the look modern and uncluttered. It works particularly well in Scandinavian or minimalist interiors, but can also lend charm to more eclectic, cosy spaces.

About Barker and Stonehouse
A Remarkable Journey
Born from the vision of two young RAF men, Charles Barker and Alex Stonehouse, Barker and Stonehouse emerged as a beacon of hope, infusing post-war Britain with a hint of glamour. Starting from a single store in Stockton on Tees, their entrepreneurial spirit led to rapid expansion, opening multiple stores across the region.
Their fast growth was fueled not only by their flair for business but also by their dedication to innovation. The business transformed over the years, adapting to the changing landscapes of retail, all while preserving its charm and values. By 2021, they marked an impressive 75 years in the industry, a testament to their enduring commitment to quality and customer service.
Sustainability at the Forefront
From the very start, Barker and Stonehouse has held a deep commitment to the environment. This devotion was showcased through initiatives such as the Trees4Trees Project, a reforestation effort in Indonesia.
Ensuring that for every tree used in their products, more than two were replanted, nearly 1.5 million trees have been restored under this initiative.
Their Knaresborough store, one of the greenest retail stores in the UK, further underscores their dedication to sustainable practices. As a cherry on top, by 2021, the company achieved the status of "Carbon Neutral Plus", making them a trailblazer in the furniture industry.
Innovative Spaces and Expanding Horizons
Over the decades, Barker and Stonehouse didn't just expand in number, but in the quality and innovation of their spaces. From opening their iconic store in Battersea, London, which beautifully preserved the characteristics of an old candle factory, to their latest state-of-the-art Gateshead store in 2023, every location tells a story.
They have also ventured into digital realms, ensuring a vast online presence and offering a wide range of products to customers all over the UK. Their partnerships, like the one with Fenwick in 2021, illustrate their adaptability and constant quest to reach new audiences.
