Vintage bentwood extendable coffee table by Drevopodnik Holesov, 70s

Extendable coffee table designed by drepovodnik holesov. Its clean, minimalist lines are representative of 1970s czechoslovakian design. The sturdy top rests on a thin, curved wooden base shaped like an inverted t. When extended, the table measures 170 cm, thanks to a 45 cm extension hidden beneath the top and a so-called "butterfly" system. Made entirely of solid beech, the designer plays on the alternating grain of the top to create a slightly striped effect that varies depending on the light. In perfect condition, a sound investment, robust and stylish, it stands the test of time.
