About the Item

Mid-Century Modern Italian Extending Dining Table in Macassar Ebony with Mother-of-Pearl Inlays, Retailed by Harrods, Circa 1970s Description: Elevate your dining space with this exquisite mid-century modern Italian extending dining table, a rare piece retailed through Harrods in the 1970s. Crafted entirely from Macassar ebony, the table showcases the wood’s dramatic, streaked grain in a stunning chevron veneer pattern on the circular tabletop, with its natural medium-brown tones creating a dynamic, geometric design. The edge of the tabletop and the lower section of the pedestal base are stained to a deep, almost black shade, providing a striking contrast that enhances the wood’s beauty. Delicate mother-of-pearl inlays are set into the tabletop and base, adding a touch of opulence that catches the light and elevates the table’s luxurious appeal. The pedestal base mirrors the tabletop’s chevron pattern, with a subtle mother-of-pearl inlay near the top, and is finished with a sleek black lacquered accent at the bottom for a modern touch. Measuring H76cm x W126cm x D126cm, the table extends to W166cm via a clever butterfly flip-out mechanism stored beneath the tabletop, offering versatility for both intimate dinners and larger gatherings. The hidden leaf unfolds seamlessly, maintaining the table’s minimalist silhouette and chevron pattern while providing extra space when needed. The Macassar ebony’s natural and stained tones, along with the mother-of-pearl inlays, exude a timeless mid-century charm, making this piece a perfect complement to other period furniture, such as a vibrant orange leather sofa. In excellent vintage condition, the table shows minimal signs of wear including tiny scuffs, with the Macassar ebony retaining its rich patina and the mother-of-pearl inlays intact, a testament to its quality craftsmanship. Retailed through Harrods, this table reflects the luxury and exclusivity associated with the iconic London department store, which curated the finest European designs for its discerning clientele. Ideal for collectors, design enthusiasts, or anyone seeking a statement piece, this Italian dining table is ready to anchor a stylish dining room with its blend of form, function, and elegance.

A Round Art Deco Dining Table in Macassar Ebony

Located in Chicago, IL

This stunning circular dining table is resplendent in macassar veneer arranged in a starburst pattern. The design consists of 8 pie-shaped wedges formed from 32 pieces of veneer. Macassar, a subspecies of ebony, was selected for its straight grain, high striation, and exceptional hardness. The base is pyramidal, with three tapered legs joined by curved lobes. The piece is truly a marvel of nature and human craftsmanship. The high-gloss lacquer finish accentuates the beauty of the wood. Hungarian furniture makers have been making fine veneered furniture since the Biedermeier era in the early 19th Century. Biedermeier furniture required high-tech (for the time) cutting tools and new application techniques. The technology transferred easily to Art Deco, a style that originated in France but also bloomed in 1930's Budapest. The same techniques are in use today, almost 100 years later. Hungarian Deco...
