The Crate dining table is part of HAY’s collection of wooden outdoor furniture. The sturdy Crate table is characterized by its clean and balanced lines, which give the dining table an architectural and elegant look. The table pairs perfectly with HAY's Crate chairs, but also steals the spotlight as a companion to other patio furniture – try how the pine table would sit alongside HAY's classic Palissade chairs, for example! The first Crate table was designed by Dutch architect and designer Gerrit Thomas Rietveld in 1934. At that time, the Crate furniture was made from leftover wooden shipping crates – hence the name of the collection. Today, Rietveld Originals and HAY use lacquered pine as the material. Finished with a weatherproof coating, the long Crate dining table is ideal for all kinds of outdoor spaces from the terrace to the garden and balcony.
