Description
The Cattelan Italia Gotham Keramik Drive Extendible Dining Table — designed by Paolo Cattelan — combines a monolithic sculptural metal base with a generous extendible ceramic top, delivering both everyday practicality and architectural presence. The Drive butterfly extension mechanism allows the top to expand symmetrically from both ends without removing the extension leaves, seamlessly scaling from 8 seats closed to 10 or 12 seats extended. Available in four configurations — rectangular and barrel-shaped, across two size ranges — with five embossed base finishes and 18 ceramic top options spanning matt and glossy stone-effect finishes. Note: ceramic top availability varies between rectangular and barrel configurations — see the dimensions table below.
Key Features
- Drive Butterfly Extension Mechanism: The Gotham Keramik Drive's self-storing extension system expands symmetrically from both ends — no separate leaves to store or manage. Closed to extended in one smooth motion, scaling the table from 8 to 10 or 12 seats depending on configuration.
- Monolithic Sculptural Metal Base: A bold, character-defining metal base with consistent 79 × 51 cm footprint across all four configurations — providing structural stability and commanding visual presence beneath the ceramic top.
- 18 Ceramic Top Finishes: An extensive palette of matt and glossy stone-effect ceramic surfaces spanning calacatta, portoro, noir, marble-effect, and abstract compositions. Availability varies between barrel and rectangular configurations — see table below.
- Five Embossed Base Finishes: Titanium Embossed, Bronze Embossed, Black Embossed, Graphite Embossed, and Pearl Embossed — available uniformly across all four configurations.
- Four Configurations — 8 to 12 Guests: 180/258 × 90 cm rectangular and barrel, and 200/294 × 100/106 cm barrel and rectangular — all at 74 cm / 75 cm dining height, with 38–47 cm extensions per side.
- Rectangular & Barrel Formats: Rectangular for formal grid-aligned dining; barrel-shaped for softened organic ends. Note: each format supports a different subset of ceramic top finishes.
- Made in Italy — Paolo Cattelan: Designed by Paolo Cattelan and manufactured entirely in Italy by Cattelan Italia.

Golden Calacatta and Borghini Calacatta tops pair most naturally with Bronze Embossed and Pearl Embossed bases. Portoro, Sahara Noir, and dark tops (Makalu, Kaindy, Colosseo) suit Black Embossed and Graphite Embossed bases for a cohesive tonal composition. Alabastro and Matt Invisible deliver the most minimal, neutral surface — ideal for interiors where the ceramic top is a background element rather than a focal point.
Materials & Construction
Sculptural Metal Base — Drive Mechanism
Monolithic sculpted metal base with a consistent 79 × 51 cm footprint across all configurations. Houses the Drive butterfly extension mechanism — a self-storing system that expands the top symmetrically from both ends without separate extension leaves. Available in five embossed finishes: Titanium, Bronze, Black, Graphite, and Pearl.
Extendible Ceramic Top — 18 Finishes
High-performance ceramic surface in 18 matt and glossy stone-effect finishes. Ceramic is highly resistant to heat, scratching, staining, and UV fading — making it one of the most practical premium table top materials for daily dining use. Availability of specific finishes is split between rectangular and barrel configurations — refer to the dimensions table below.
Available Dimensions & Configurations
Four configurations — 8 seats closed, 10 or 12 seats extended. All at 74 cm / 29.1" dining height. Base footprint is 79 cm wide × 51 cm deep across all configurations. Extensions expand symmetrically from both ends via the Drive butterfly mechanism.
