Antique Oak Pedestal Dining Set – Lion Carvings, 3 Leaves, Early 20th C
This early 20th-century American oak dining set exemplifies the Renaissance Revival style, featuring a robust pedestal table and four matching chairs. The table's base is adorned with intricately carved lion heads and paw feet, motifs popularized by esteemed furniture makers like R.J. Horner & Co. during the late 19th and early 20th centuries .
The set includes three 8-inch leaves, allowing the 43¾-inch round table to extend for larger gatherings. The chairs showcase detailed foliate carvings and are upholstered with fixed seats, accented by nailhead trim—a design element consistent with the period's craftsmanship.
Comparable pieces from this era, especially those with similar lion motifs, have been noted for their collectible value and are often sought after by enthusiasts of Victorian and Renaissance Revival furniture .
