Description:
Exceptional, multifunctional dining table.
Firstly, we see two wall-mounted consoles with a double row of legs at the back. The semi-circular shape gives them the name "Demilune".
When put together, the result is a circular dining table with a diameter of 112 cm.
In the next step, two support beams can be inserted, which serve as a support surface for two insert boards. The table now has a length of 211 cm - for 6-8 people.
Two further insert boards extend the table to 260 cm initially and in the final step to the final size of 309 cm. This provides space for 10-12 adults.
Condition:
Ready to live in condition. The extension mechanism works perfectly. The table is stable and suitable for everyday use. The surface is oiled and can be wiped with a damp cloth.
The inlay plates have been added. The legs have been extended by approx. 3 cm at the bottom to achieve a "modern" dining table height.
