ping-pong dining table harks back to the origins of table-tennis with its duality of both being a table fit for dining and playing on. what started off as impromptu after-dinner amusement mimicking tennis in an indoor environment for upper-class victorians became an international phenomenon with rules and standards. this is an official-sized game table with a DuPont™ Corian® surface CNC machine-routed with french rococo patterns interjected ping-pong iconography filled with gold lacquer, supported by stately hand-lathed timber legs. in the middle, a long rectangular vase filled with dainty blossoms does double-duty as a game-net and a table floral arrangement.

reinstating grandeur and pomp with neo-classical inspired embellishments , the ping-pong dining table creates a remarkable conceptual statement in the true heart of the home, the dining area.
