"When I first moved into my 1960s-era Los Angeles apartment four years ago, there was one purchase I was actually excited to tap my credit card for: my very first dining table. My previous space had no designated dining area, so my husband and I usually ate on barstools at the kitchen counter. The thought of having an actual table where we could sit down not shoulder-to-shoulder and share a meal was honestly thrilling. (Not to mention all of the opportunities for tablescape decor!)"
"As a vintage collector, I dreamed of finding a perfectly lived-in kitchen table at a local antique mall - maybe even the Rose Bowl Flea Market. I wanted something that was high-quality, made of solid wood, and - most importantly - a worthy centerpiece for the 100-year-old dining chairs I inherited from my best friend's mom before she passed. Budget, time, and car size didn't allow for it, though, so I began to browse the virtual aisles of Target instead;"
The Threshold Astrid Mid-Century Round Extendable Dining Table suits small kitchen spaces with dimensions of 30 inches tall, 40 inches wide, and 40 inches long, expanding to 52 inches with a center leaf. The center leaf converts the table from round to oval and stores conveniently under the couch when not in use. The maple brown finish complements antique dining chairs and creates the impression of a coordinated set. The table is easy to expand and supports hosting in compact homes as an affordable alternative to seeking vintage solid-wood tables. The table is not constructed from heavy solid wood.
