The Monarch Kitchen Island blends upscale design with state-of-the-art functionality. Stylish design features include a solid hardwood, distressed Oak finished top with profiled edges; framed side and back panels; and a , Antiqued White sanded and distressed finish over hardwood solids and engineered wood. Functional elements include two storage drawers and a storage cabinet with four adjustable shelves. What makes this island really unique is the hidden sliding mechanism connected to the back two shaped and turned posts. The mechanism provides easy mobility and independent movement of the two posts for expansion of the breakfast bar. The 15.5 inch breakfast bar extends the top surface from 25 inches to 40.5 inches. Either with the breakfast bar closed or in use, this piece has a polished look by being consistently styled on both the approach and working sides.
