Made from solid wood with a veneered chamfered edged top, it has two extendable leaves to fit the entire family. The design was updated in 2016, reducing the depth of the tabletop and reducing the size of the base to feel more light and elegant than the previous version. The depth increased by 10cm to 1m to give more room for entertaining friends and family. This contemporary table can seat 8 people at its smallest. Fully extended, with both leaves inserted, it can seat 12.
