About: Introducing the exquisite vintage expanding dining table from the renowned designer Paul McCobb for Calvin Furniture. This timeless piece, part of The Irwin Collection, showcases exceptional design and superior craftsmanship. Crafted in the 1950s in Grand Rapids, Michigan, this table features a spacious surface supported by solid mahogany legs and brass tone stretchers, adding a unique touch to its classic design. The table comes with two extension leaves, each measuring 12", allowing the table to extend to a maximum length of 78" when fully expanded. Perfect for accommodating guests, this dining table is a true statement of both style and functionality.
Part of a second wave of midcentury American designers that emerged after World War II, Paul McCobb was such a household name, the press crowned him “America’s Designer” during his lifetime. His works are characterized by striking geometry, purity of form and a rock ‘n’ roll undercurrent that are all on full display with this re-imagined dining table.
Featuring a pickled wood treatment creating a weathered look that highlights the mahogany's natural grain this icon of the 1950's can blend seamlessly against a multitude of design backdrops from Contemporary to Boho Chic to Mid-Century Modern and everything in between. Make it yours today before it's gone forever.
Origin: United States of America
Proof: Ample Provenance - Industry Consensus
Period: 1950s
Material: Mahogany | Brass
State: Partial Restoration (See Details)
Condition Details: Professionally pickled by the previous owners this table underwent a partial restoration in the recent past with only minor signs of vintage wear present such as scratches, a veneer repair and other minor veneer chips (less than 2 mm in size) all of which can be seen in the detail photos and natural light video provided. With that said the wood is in overall very good condition and pickled wood finish gives this table an excellent weathered appearance.
The brass crossmembers show only minor tarnishing. The table easily expands and contracts via a clever system of metal cogs and the two extension leaves are easily installed and removed.
This expansion dining table is highly functional, structurally solid and ready for a literal lifetime more of use. Please view all photos and natural light video provided for details on this table's current condition. We're limited on the amount of media we can post so additional photos and videos are available upon request.
