The extending dining table has answered the problem of the occasional crowd since the eighteenth century, when English cabinetmakers devised telescoping frames and loose leaves so that a table for four could seat a dozen, and German workshops won fame across Europe for furniture with ingenious hidden mechanisms. The best ones look complete whether they are open or closed.
This rectangular table has a wood-grain veneer top in Jet, Hazel or White on a broad pedestal, which stands on a gleaming brass-toned stainless steel plate. A butterfly leaf, a hinged leaf that folds in half, is stored inside the base: unfold it, lock it in place, and the table grows from 71 inches long to 94.5, seating up to eight. When it is closed there is no separate leaf to find a home for. Non-marking pads protect the floor.
Closed, it suits everyday family dinners; opened, it seats eight for a holiday dinner with a long row of candles down the middle, and it is a fine table for a big meeting at home. With its brass plate it is dramatic in a dining room with dark walls and a low chandelier, gorgeous with crystal glasses and velvet chairs.
