My unidentifiable table

This table was bought at an antiques fair in Texas. It is tiger stripe oak veneer on top and has chain links that are labeled leaves 2 and leaves 4. Well made obviously by hand. Extremely heavy. The table flips up like a tilt top and I believe it had leaves that are not with table. I love this table because it is so unusual. I Want to tell people more about and use it properly. I am afraid to move it or try to separate it if it was changed or adjusted because lack of leaves. If anyone has information that I could use it would be greatlly appreciated.
