Abstract
A top assembly for desks, tables, credenzas and similar items having a metal core and an outer covering of a thin hard laminated plastic. The thin hard laminated plastic covers the top surface of the metal core and is wrapped around the side and end walls and the undersurface edges thereof. The side and end walls of the metal core extend generally at right angles to the top surface thereof providing the top assembly with a squared planar appearance. The thin laminated plastic covering is unbroken by seams or metal rims along the side and end edges of the top assembly. The only portions of the laminated plastic covering that are slit or cut are at the corners of the top assembly and these portions are covered by metal caps.
