Mid-Century Expandable Milo Baughman Dining Table for Directional

An exceptional Mid-Century Modern Parsons-style expandable dining table designed by Milo Baughman for Directional Furniture, dating to circa the 1960s.

The table features a striking striped veneer top composed of rosewood, teak, and walnut. A centered walnut veneer field is accented with teak striping, thin walnut details, and rosewood banding, creating a sophisticated linear pattern across the surface.

The clean Parsons-style form is complemented by a black lacquered apron and legs, giving the table a strong architectural profile while allowing the richly patterned wood top to remain the focal point.

Designed for both everyday dining and larger gatherings, the table includes two removable 20-inch extension leaves. An expandable Watertown steel rail system beneath the top allows the table to grow from 60 inches to an impressive 100 inches, or approximately 8.33 feet, when fully extended.

The drop-in leaves are book-matched and designed to blend with the primary tabletop when installed, maintaining the continuous visual character of the veneer.

Its flexible configuration allows it to accommodate smaller dining arrangements when closed and substantially larger gatherings when fully extended.
