Archetype Forms 1961 Dining Table: Long

The 1961 Dining Table features a minimalist design with a rectangular surface choice of stone, glass, or wood veneer, supported by stainless steel bar legs connected to horizontal steel square tube rails. The stone top versions have a tension rod substructure to support the weight of the marble top and prevent deflection.

This rectangular Long version Dining Table is the largest of the series, based on the Florence Knoll archives. It measures 94.5" long, 39.4" wide, 28.4" high.
