  • Description

    A rare and stylish space-saving Hilleplan dining table designed by Robin Day for Hille in the 1950’s. The table has a walnut top surface on a beech frame and is hinged to allow it to unfold, swivel and extend.

    Originally conceived as low-cost furniture, the range was inspired by the plywood work of Alvar Aalto and Charles and Ray Eames and proved to be one of Hille’s early successes.

    The Hille furniture company was started in the East End of London in 1906 by Salamon Hille. Hille’s most famous designer was, of course, Robin Day. From the very outset Day was given carte blanche to design whatever he wanted and to have prototypes built. Day is most famously remembered for his best selling product, the Polypropylene chair, the first of which was the polyside chair in 1963.

    This super vintage table is in very nice condition. The top surface is fresh, and rich in colour. As you'd expect, some signs of age and use, including marks to legs.

    W120 x D83 x H71cm

    Folded: W83 x D62 x H71cm
