Description
This is a truly stunning high-end dining table in beautiful teak wood, designed and manufactured in Denmark in the 1960s. The grain patterns on the table are rich and expressive. Design highlights include the curved ends, gently splayed legs, attractive banding and the beautiful way that the end leaves integrate with the main leaf (see photos). Another super feature is that the two additional leaves can be used separately, or together, meaning that 3 different table lengths can be set.
The overwhelming majority of Svend Madsen’s furniture was designed in the 1960s and his creations epitomise the Danish Modern style. He favoured warm teak and rosewood, organic silhouettes and minimal decorative details. Madsen created desks for the Danish makers H.P. Hansen and Sigurd Hansen. He also designed sideboards and dining tables for K. Knudsen and Son. These classic mid-century dining tables and sideboards designed by the Danish furniture designers of this period are still highly valued throughout the world to this day.
This Scandinavian mid century modern dining table is structurally sound and in very nice original condition with, as you’d expect, some signs of age and use.
