High and Mighty

What's the hallmark of timelessness? The ability to assimilate. Confident enough to work well with Thomas Chippendale and Florence Knoll alike, Datesweiser's Highline conference furniture is what Allan Weiser describes as "very clean and neutral."

Wraparound legs support the cabinet of a credenza offered in three materials—walnut, oak, or white lacquer—and three versions as determined by the number of center storage levels: 1 High, 2 High, and 3 High, all at a choice of 87 or 99 inches wide. (With the double and triple models, the open shelf holds leather-covered or lacquered accessory boxes.) The conference table has a 10-foot-long top of marble, back-painted glass, anigre, oak, walnut, or solid surfacing, all configured to conceal technology essentials. Those same materials top the square and round meeting tables, which measure 48 inches across.

All metal components may be specified in polished chrome, oil-rubbed bronze, or satin nickel. Wood stains come in natural, medium, and dark. 212-727-8555; datesweiser.com. circle 406
