I just purchased this Rosewood Dining Table, and was wondering if anyone might be able to help us identify the designer. I've searched high and low and have come up empty handed. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
- It is stamped Made In Denmark, and has some other markings that have faded and have become hard to read
- Two leaves - one that stores in the table and one that is separate
- Unique shape in the legs and where it meets the table top (see pics)
Many thanks.

any chance of a bigger photo of the illegible mark? Often illegible marks are legible to someone who has seen the mark before.

I can't help with the ID, but that's a damn fine looking table.

I wouldn't be surprised if this table is somewhere attributed to Johannes Andersen but it isn't.

Many thanks!

The lighting on your first shot of the mark was so much better than the second larger image. Your best shot at getting it identified is taking a well lit, well focused close up shot of the mark.

If I had the good luck that a table of mine had maker's mark?no matter how illegible?I'd disassemble the table and take it to the good lighting and good camera if I thought it would get me an answer.
Otherwise the table looks like a LOT of other "danish" tables and could be from one of 50 barely documented makers, or some completely undocumented maker. And if nobody has recognized it yet, that likelihood has gone way up.

Ya I will see what I can do about a better pic of the stamp. It is very faded though.
This was the rosewood sideboard I bought with the table. I believe it is henry rosengren hansen. (sorry the handle close up pic is a bit green - lighting was off).
Not sure if it is the same designer for the table...?

It looks sort of like it has the same legs, but again. And it does look like Rosengren Hansen, but the photo is so small, I can't say anything with any certainty. And I am no Rosengren Hansen expert.
If it does have the same legs as the table (the flared top over the apron), then it is very likely the same designer. And likely enough you've probably doubled your chance of knowing the designer so that you can focus on digging up proof.
Bigger photo of the sideboard, too?

The shape of the stamp, and what I can make out of the writing, reminds me of an ID request that has popped up here a few times in the past - Svend A. Madsen. Here's a couple of images of legible stamps I found online.
