Sesame Extension Dining Table
The Sesame Extension Dining Table, designed by Paolo Vernier, redefines extendable furniture with a remarkably discreet mechanism that allows it to expand in a smooth, silent motion while concealing its inner workings. This seamless balance of form and function lends the piece an understated sophistication, making it a natural fit for modern interiors. Available in barrel and elliptical shapes, Sesame embodies minimalist elegance with a distinct visual presence.
At its core is a patented extension system that preserves the table’s clean, uninterrupted aesthetic in both closed and open states. Fully customizable in its finishes and structure, it adapts effortlessly to residential and contract settings alike. Crafted in Italy by MIDJ, Sesame combines refined design with technical innovation, offering both everyday style and the flexibility to host guests with ease.
