extension table

Grows for guests

An extension table is a table that can be enlarged by inserting additional leaves or panels into its center, or by pulling apart hinged sections that fold or slide out.

The design allows the table to accommodate more people when needed while taking up less space during everyday use: We put in the extension table's extra leaf for Thanksgiving dinner.
