The following is from the designer:
Roll is an example of indestructible mechanical practicality. A series of hard working tables specifically constructed to ease the workers’ burden. The rolling wheel on the cast iron base enables lone waiting staff to reconfigure tables with minimal fuss and assistance.
The robust bumper edge trim, extruded in rubber, allows tables to be grouped together and withstand the hard knocks of life.
