Mid-Century Teak Extending Dining Table Designed by Johannes Andersen for Uldum Møbelfabrik, Denmark, 1960s

This extending dining table was designed in the 1960s by Johannes Andersen for the renowned Danish manufacturer Uldum Møbelfabrik. The model is an excellent example of Scandinavian Mid-Century Modern design, celebrated for its harmonious proportions, outstanding craftsmanship, and timeless aesthetic.

Crafted from teak wood with beautifully figured grain, the table showcases the refined and elegant form characteristic of Johannes Andersen’s work. The slender tapered legs and subtly sculpted edges of the tabletop lend the piece a sense of sophistication and visual lightness, allowing it to complement both modern and classic interiors.

The table features a practical extension mechanism with an additional leaf stored neatly beneath the tabletop. This allows the length of the table to be increased from 170 cm to 260 cm, providing comfortable seating for a larger number of guests. The integrated storage of the extension leaf ensures full functionality without the need for separate storage space.

The piece has undergone comprehensive woodworking restoration. It was stripped of the old coating, stained in a rosewood colour to enhance the depth and character of the natural grain, and finished with a durable high-quality semi-matt lacquer, providing effective surface protection while preserving the natural appearance of the wood.
