Strength in Simplicity
Timelessly on-trend, six can dine comfortably at the Allandale Round Dining Table in natural elm. Nuanced and graceful, this piece epitomizes the strength of simplicity. “The round table top incorporates texture with wire brushing, while the cutout base speaks to Swedish Gustavian design influence,” Post notes.
