ARTLESS GAX 48 had its inception as a custom order and has become one of our favorites. The width, while intimidating at first, now seems perfect. It's expansive, thus ideal for family-style dinners, as there is plenty of space for a multitude of platters and bowls in the center. The slide-friendly surface allows items to be passed with ease from one end to the other, freeing you of the need for coasters and other additional accessories.
