Has it ever happened to you to have guests and not enough space at the table? When you have a large family or many friends, you definitely need a large table, which takes up a lot of space. Fortunately, designer David Fletcher thought of this particular problem when he created The Capstan table. This expanding table is unique and it doubles its capacity from six to twelve, at the push of a button, remaining circular in the process. A very important feature is that it stores its expansion leaves within itself.

The mechanism was described as ‘pure magic’ by Boat International magazine; fast and impressive, taking only seconds to fully expand or contract.
