Tenure 12 ft (144") Bow-End Conference Table with Panel Base, 54 Inches Deep, Seats 10-12

It seats up to 12 at 24 inches of width per seat along the two long sides, or 10 with more elbow room, the same as a rectangle of the same length. Each curved end is still the full 54 inches across, so the head and foot each keep a chair.

Leave 48 inches from the table edge to every wall so chairs pull out and people can walk behind seated guests: about 20 by 12 1/2 feet for this table. If nobody needs to pass behind a seated person, 36 inches from the table edge works, about 18 by 10 1/2 feet.

Yes. Each of the two wire troughs between the base panels has 12 by 5 and 3/4 inches of clear space inside, room for a power strip and its brick, and the swing door on each base panel lets you reach the plugs.

Yes. Pick one or two power grommets on this page and choose whether they run across or along the table. They are cut into the top before it ships, and where one sits over a base panel, the factory notches that panel for the cord drop at no extra charge. Power is picked with the order because it is built into the top, not added to a finished table.

A table whose top runs straight along both long sides, like a rectangle, but whose two ends bow outward in a gentle curve instead of a flat edge. This one is 54 inches deep all along its straight sides. A boat-shaped top curves along its long sides instead, widest at the middle and narrower at both ends. A racetrack rounds each end into a full half circle as wide as the top, so much more of its length is curve. What the curved ends give a long table is mostly a softer outline at the head and foot; the long sides stay straight, so the side seats sit as they would at a rectangle.

Sections over 96 inches cannot ship by freight, so a 144-inch top comes in two sections, each a two-person carry. They meet at a seam across the table in the room, and on woodgrain colors the grain will not line up perfectly across it.

A bow-end conference table on a panel base ships by freight, on one or more pallets depending on size, securely wrapped. It arrives in a handful of large, mostly assembled pieces: the two top sections, the three base panels and the two wire troughs that join them go together in the room. It is not flat-pack furniture, so there is no bag of screws and loose panels to build from.
