Round dining tables with integrated extensions are very unusual. This table has an extremely clever built-in mechanism which allows two folded extension tops to be hoisted into position using a special lifting mechanism and a vertical adjustment slide. While maintaining the table’s height at 77 cm, it can thus be extended to 234 cm and offers comfortable seating for ten people.
