I used 2 saw horses and a piece of plywood for years while I saved for my dream DR table a really nice huge table cloth and could sit 12 at it. On day to day we just used a piece of plywood 1/2 that size Stored them in th garage . We now have a glass DR table that seats 6 day today and 10 when expanded. There are so many cool expanding tables .

i agree. it's a tad too wide and too bulky beneath. bev makes it look good w/the decor AND the other rug. go for something smaller in length, w/vertical decor hung above. any of these ideas would work

Butler's table? Is that like a sideboard? Because of the windows, I think I'd rather the table /sideboard be placed against the back wall. If you place it on one of the sides, the two windows at the back will be partially blocked, and I don't think that'd look right. I think I'd look for a small table that'd (mostly) fit between the windows. Then I'd flank it with drapes on the outsides only. Do add lighting above this table while you're moving the chandy.

Good luck with the hunt I have rarely seen these as used . You can get replicas of the Saarinen maybe check those out too.
