Identifying an Antique Table with Extensions?

Identifying an Antique Table with ExtensionsCan anyone identify antique dining table with two extensions? I need help identifying an old table that appears to have had modifications at some time. The only writing I can find is on metal hardware that says "Acme metal sliders" and made in England on the hardware on the legs of which when condensed the legs fold up into table. Also I tried so hard, but on the bottom on the hardware I think it says something like "vorsch" or versch, but I'm not sure.

I need a little more info to help....so do the skinny legs fold up and those are the extensions?

What does the table look like folded down to its smallest size?

Why is it you think it is a mish-mash of tables?

The underside looks like a 1940s/50s piece--and that jives with Acme being around since the late 1940s.

Maybe with some more info and more photos, I may be able to help more.

It is a pretty piece! Neat center base! Looking for more info. Thanks!

yes the skinny legs fold up in to the middle when you remove the two extension pieces and are partially stowed right in the middle.

Thanks for the additional photos. Wow. I am totally stumped.

You may be correct in that it is "Franken" table...where someone took a 40s table and in the 60s when the extension legs look like they came from, put it all together.

I am going to have to defer this to a professional furniture dealer to check out and give you the best guidance.

Please post back with what you learn!! It is a neat item!! Looking forward to learning more!

Your best bet is to take the pictures to an antiques dealer to get his or her opinion.
