Description from the seller
Vintage Extendable Dining Table in Walnut and Precious Wood with an Entire Glass Top – Mid-Century / Modern Classic Style – Italy, Circa 1950/1970
Up for auction, an elegant and functional vintage rectangular dining table of Italian manufacture, dating from the mid-20th century. The table beautifully combines the warmth of wood with the formal clarity and lightness typical of Mid-Century design.
The supporting structure and legs are made in warm walnut tones and precious wood species. The four legs feature a refined inverted truncated cone line with vertical geometric inlays and a upper taper, elements that elongate the silhouette without compromising stability.
The main top is entirely made of and protected by a large original clear glass sheet from the period, laid over the framework. The great functional value of the table lies in its proven “pull-out” extension system: the two wide wooden side leaves, housed invisibly under the glass top, extend independently from either side, greatly expanding the surface area for guests and creating a fascinating material contrast between the glass center and the wooden wings.
A versatile and highly classy piece of furniture, ideal for dining rooms, large living rooms, or professional studios with vintage, modernist, or contemporary classical taste.
Technical Specifications & Features
Type: Extendable dining table / meeting table
Materials: Frame and extensions in wood (walnut / precious wood), top in transparent glass
Country of origin: Italy
Period: Circa 1950 - 1970 (Mid-20th Century)
Mechanism: Two independently retractable side extensions in wood

Normal signs of time and use are present: slight superficial scratches on the surface of the transparent glass and some small dings or localized polish loss on the edges of the wooden frame and on the bottom of the legs (all faithfully documented in the macro photographs). The surface patina gives the piece authentic historical charm.
