Description from the seller
Extending Vintage Walnut Dining Table and Fine Wood with a Glass Top – Mid-Century Style / Classical Modern – Italy, Circa 1950/1970
On auction, an elegant and functional vintage rectangular dining table of Italian manufacture, dating from the mid-20th century. The table beautifully blends the warmth of wood with the formal clarity and visual lightness typical of Mid-Century design.
The supporting structure and legs are made in warm walnut tones and fine essences. The four legs feature a refined inverted pyramid trunk profile with vertical geometric grooves and a tapered upper section, elements that elongate the silhouette without sacrificing stability.
The main top is entirely made and protected by a large original glass pane from the period, resting atop the structure. The great functional value of the table lies in its proven “pull-out” extension system: the two wide side leaf extensions in wood, recessed under the glass top, are independently draw-out from either side, greatly expanding the resting surface for guests and creating a fascinating material contrast between the glass center and the wooden wings.
A versatile, highly classy furnishing piece, ideal for dining rooms, large living areas, or professional studies with vintage, modernist, or contemporary classic taste.
Technical Specifications & Features
Type: Extending dining table / meeting table
Materials: Frame and extensions in wood (walnut/fine essence), top in transparent glass
Country of origin: Italy
Period: Circa 1950 - 1970 (Mid 20th Century)
Mechanism: Two independently retractable side extensions in wood
Style: Mid-Century Modern / Classical Modern
Condition: Good vintage overall condition. The wooden frame is sturdy and stable, and the extension mechanism slides correctly. Normal signs of time and use are present: minor superficial contact scratches on the transparent glass surface and some small scuffs or localized areas of lack of polishing on the edges of the wooden frame and on the underside of the legs (all faithfully documented in the macro photographs). The natural patina gives the piece authentic historical charm.
