Stunning Paul Evans Cityscape Dining Table


















Stunning Paul Evans Cityscape Dining Table
Grand-scale dining table from Paul Evans’ blockbuster Cityscape series for Directional Furniture, early 1970s production. The table seats eight without leaves (30” h x 48-1/8” d x 96” l), and 12 with the two perfectly matching 15" leaves inserted, which extends the length to 126". A 4-1/8"-high skirt gives the top a substantial presence. It is clad in a beautiful patchwork burled elm in original finish, well preserved and patinated to a rich brown. The top sits on a curved-cornered rectangular base, 20" w x 60" l, in patchwork satin and matte chrome. The top center panel is in the same chrome material. Signed on the base. Beautiful vintage condition; minor surface scratching and patina to the metal consistent with age and light use; some minor lifting to chrome panels, but no loose panels or major bends; rich patina to the dark burled elm.
