About the Item
The period between 1950 and 1970 was characterised by some of the most stunning and well-executed furniture designs of the 20th century. As with the UK and much of Europe, there was something of a design renaissance in France in the 1950s, due to developments in materials and technology after the war. In France, designers were often also architects, whose focus on functionality and quality resulted in pieces such as this stunning dining table.
This model is all about the gorgeous wooden structure. The discreet joinery and seamless construction reflect the French emphasis on detail and quality, elevating the piece beyond just functional to an object of aesthetic value. The design is dominated by the rectangular tabletop; it features a rich, dark wood veneer that showcases the grain and deep tones of the wood, which can add a sense of warmth and sophistication to any dining space. To support the top are four legs with impeccable joinery that is visible under the tabletop. Since this piece was made in the heyday of mid-century design, the legs - and the table as a whole - lack heavy ornamentation, and instead the focus is on the beauty of the material. The mid-century pieces that appeal to most are the models that were designed with both nature and function in mind, which appear completely contemporary and undated, making this dark wood dining table an exceptional example of the ideals of the era. Overall, the clean lines and balanced proportions create a streamlined silhouette, while the dark finish lends a timeless quality that complements both classic and contemporary interiors.
Wood has never gone out of style, and interior design with an emphasis on natural materials is only gaining popularity today. This dining table will make a striking addition to a variety of interiors.

Giuseppe Scapinelli Extendable Dining Table for Angelini & Delneri, Brazil 1950s
By Giuseppe Scapinelli
Located in Utrecht, NL
Giuseppe Scapinelli was known as a designer who successfully combined “the classic” with “the modern”, and this table stands as evidence. Scapinelli was a Brazilian designer from São Paulo who did not use any means of mass production. His furniture alternated and combined elements from Italian classicism, innovative aerodynamic lines, and biomorphic shapes.
This rare circular table has an amazing construction that praises the firm, Angelini & Delneri. Upon first sight, this model is an elegant circular table made of beautifully grained wood. However, when the table is extended, the elaborate system is revealed by which the extra wooden leaves can be added to extend the length. The artisanal level craftsmanship is as stunning as the design itself, with traditional joinery techniques such as pegs and so-called ‘biscuit’ joints. Besides the extension system, the craftsmanship is also evident in every edge and angle, such as the legs’ curve and the ring strengthening them. This table is very successful at balancing large volumes with clean lines. The legs have rounded edges and are slightly splayed below the wooden ring.
This memorable design is from a designer committed to pushing the boundaries of modernist design in Brazil. The form is functional and elegant with subtle flourishes like intricate wooden details and the evident emphasis on functionality. This dining table is a grand piece that will stand out and add character to any interior.
