the base of the table and the legs look totally different 🙄 These tripod tables are so common, thousands of antique ones are available and all look similar

So the shop couldn't find the photo that proved it belonged to Diana, typical :rolleyes:. She is now showing a random photo found online of Diana at a table signing something. The table doesn't look special, there is likely more than one. She is stupid for not gaining the proof before purchasing as there is no way it is worth £460 without the story.

Looks like one of those odds and ends table you find down your old local pub.

I petty-added to the bottom vote. They do not look exactly the same. Also, those tables are ten a penny. How convenient that they lost the photo 😂
That label also looks pretty faded. “Hmm, this isn’t selling - it’s been sitting here for ages. What can we do… Oh, I know! Anyone got a pen? No, it doesn’t have to be the same, we’ll just say we forgot to add it”.

Those tables are not even comparable, Lydia's one doesn't even look the same colour or as if the top was ever varnished.

Also who wrote used by Lady Diana? She died as Diana Princess of Wales and had not used her Lady title since 1981. If it really was a table she used to sign a document on for approximately 5 minutes you would think the owner would have kept it in better shape if they were planning to flog it.

No one is ever far from farm land in the UK really. I can walk for 5 minutes and be on some farmer's field. I live in a small market town. So yes, Lidl lives near fields and farms and countryside.

I was just about to say this. Even if you live in London there are huge green spaces, pretty sure the majority of the UK is still considered rural with something like only 15% being considered as urban. It is just that more people live in urban areas than they do in the countryside but even in a city you are never far away from it.
