Featuring connecting joints and net posts that are individually plated with 24-karat gold by an Italian goldsmith, the playing surface and legs of the table are crafted from translucent crystal. Tipping the scales at about 550 pounds, the gold-plated Lungolinea looks like a work of art, but its manufacturers are adamant it can take a pounding just like the table in your old rec room.

“Lungolinea is a vision, a desire to ambitiously reinterpret the classics: unchanged for centuries, the Ping-Pong table relishes new life and discovers a new essence made of pure crystal and infinite light,” Impatia says. “Lungolinea is a refined object, a sublime witness of the advanced.”
