Measurements: 81 x 139 x 119,5 cm (closed; 82 x 266,5 x 119 cm).

Art nouveau style dining table, entirely made of oak wood chosen for the warmth of its tone and the beauty of its grain. It presents a structure of refined lines, softened by simple curved contours, which give the forms a certain organic aspect without renouncing the expressive power of the geometry. The table has a rectangular top. Under the tabletop there are two lateral wings that allow the surface to be enlarged. The legs are clearly organically inspired and stylized, narrower towards the base, as was common in the furniture design of the period.
