Know before you buy
This table features a classic pull-out extension system. The leaves are stored within the table frame, allowing you to expand the surface from 50.5 inches to 88.5 inches by sliding the ends outward.
The distance from the floor to the underside of the table is 23.5 inches. You should ensure your dining chairs have a seat height that allows for comfortable legroom under this apron.
Because this table has been recently refinished to highlight its natural patina, it is best to use a soft, dry cloth for dusting. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or excessive moisture, and always use coasters or placemats to protect the wood from heat and spills.
Yes, when fully extended to 88.5 inches, the table provides ample surface area to comfortably accommodate six to eight guests, depending on the width of your dining chairs.
Yes, the parquet top is structurally sound and provides a stable, flat surface. While it retains the character of 1940s craftsmanship, it is perfectly suited for use as a desk or a formal dining table.
