Primitive table

Description

It is oak, and looks as though it was handmade, pieced together for private use. It is one of a kind. The carver pedestals and bases are each carved from solid pieces. The underside is rough/unfinished. I just live my table and have had nothing but positive comments on it and many offers to take it off my hands. It would be nice to have some sort of idea of probable age and value. Also, I would love to get it restored/repaired but have always been afraid I wouldn't find anyone to do the job properly, and to keep it as original as possible. Any comments, suggestions and help will be very much appreciated.

History I bought this table in an auction in BC, Canada about 21 years ago. It was listed as "Primitive Table" in the catalogue. I liked the size and shape of it, and the pull out leaves. It was pretty black when I bought it and could barely make out the pattern on the table's top.It came to the local auction in a container from eastern USA.
Price Paid (If known) $400cdn
