Most extension dining tables are around 42" to 48" in depth so the extra size lends towards much greater versatility and luxurious use options for this gorgeous circa 1970s restored table.

We refinished the table with a French Polish giving it a thick glass-like finish which via the thicker harder surface protects the table from regular daily use and gives the vibrant goatskin grain a lustrous and more exotic appearance. French Polish is the most expensive and labor intensive finish that is often reserved for the finest items, usually for exotic woods and often seen on important Rosewood and Macassar Ebony Art Deco cabinets. The deep watery-sheen is created through many hand applied coats and hand polished to a thick glass-like finish. The results are just exquisite, and this important piece is now ready for immediate placement in any high-end luxury designer project.

Attributed to Italian maker Aldo Tura, this table is in similar style to several modernism designs by Karl Springer and Ron Seff.

This modernist extendable lacquered goatskin with scalloped chrome accents dining table would work great in a French Neoclassical, Traditional, Transitional, Hollywood Regency, Classical, Art Deco, Mid-Century Modern, or Danish Modern home or penthouse apartment but could also look fantastic in a Post-Modern, Contemporary or Zen / Minimalism room and is also an apt choice in a commercial project such as a hotel lobby lounge or members club, creative design studio or high-rise executive office. This table would work excellent as a dining table, executive or management desk, work table, conference table, meeting table, Zoom call table, or as a center table.
