Constructed from European walnut, the tabletop features stunning book-matched veneers, highlighting the wood's natural beauty. The versatile design incorporates drop leaves supported by a gateleg base, allowing the table to transition seamlessly from a compact form to an incredibly expansive surface.

It extends, almost magically, from approximately 9.5 inches to 110.25 inches in width, offering multiple length options to accommodate various settings and needs. Ideal for smaller homes, the table can be folded down and stored against a wall, maximizing space efficiency without compromising on style or functionality.​

Bruno Mathsson (1907–1988) was a Swedish designer and architect celebrated for his functional and ergonomic furniture designs. In 1936, he designed the original 'Maria Flap' table, a versatile piece that could be adjusted in size to suit different spaces and purposes. Mathsson's work is characterized by a deep understanding of materials and a commitment to modernist principles.
