Original Series: Crescent
Maywood Furniture is the home of the "Original" folding banquet table.
In 1930 Mr. DeSaussure provided the Waldorf Astoria with their first folding banquet table which later became to be known as the Howe 200 Series, which Maywood manufactured for many years. Only since February 2000 has this "Original" product been available direct from the manufacturer.
