Originally designed for Greene & Greene’s Robinson House (original plans, including drawings for this table), the table this particular item was patterned after resides in Pasadena. However, a duplicate – made by master craftsman Jim Ipekjian (who is responsible for much of the recent repair work at the Blacker House) – is for sale (along with 4 leaves; it seats up to 16, altogether; the price also includes 6 high-backed Mission chairs and 2 armchairs).
Check out the listing on Craigslist, or contact the seller in Altadena, CA.
Does anyone know where I could find hi-res scans of those architectural drawings? If they could be enlarged and printed on archival paper, they’d look great framed in my office!
Love the Robinson House – was lucky enough to go into it at last year’s Craftsman Weekend. What a great house.
Has anyone ever seen drawings for the adjustable chandelier that Charles Greene made for the dining room? I’m attempting to design one similar for my library.
BTW – Great Blog – Love it!

has most of the existing drawings available for viewing online, and will provide high res images of them for a fee. From the home page, click search, then “R”, them Robinson. The drawings for the dining are with that group.
