Its granite-covered top in an elegant caramel/terracotta color is framed by a molded solid wood border, giving it undeniable character. A truly practical and decorative piece, it features an ingenious system of integrated sliding extensions on each side. It transforms into a large rectangular table, easily seating 6 to 8 guests for family meals. A discreet side drawer, adorned with its original round chrome metal knob, adds a touch of extra practicality. The tapered legs with a slightly truncated conical square section, typical of French furniture of this era, complete its silhouette, so characteristic of post-war design. The table shows light and honest wear on the legs (scratches, signs of use), perfectly consistent with its age, while the tabletop is generally well preserved. An authentic vintage piece, ideal for a kitchen or dining room with a distinctly retro style.
