Extendable dining table in solid inlaid walnut, with two sliding extensions under the top and fluted square-section tapered legs, in a Neoclassical style. The square top features an inlay decoration in light woods on a walnut background: an acanthus leaf rosette within a central circular clipeus, vegetal scroll motifs at the corners, and a perimeter threaded frame.
