Wondering if anyone has seen this table or chairs before?
Chairs appear to be solid teak. Relatively dark, so i suppose it could be bleached out roswood, but I am betting teak. Kind of has wishbone design characteristics. They were obviously reupholstered, and if there was a marking it is gone. Probably most interesting detail is the spline joints in the seat back. Looks to Wenge or something similar.
Table is solid teak, I think, but I have the same questions as the chairs on wood species. Top is staved construction, 2 leaves, about 96-100 inches fully open. When I say it is solid wood, it really is completely solid. some felt and a few fasteners are the only material other than teak. Legs, sliding mech, cross braces, everything solid wood.
Really pretty impressive in construction and material quality. If it is not made by a higher-end manufacturer, then it would have to be custom-made, by a pretty skilled craftsman.
Thanks for any input!

It's got the chunky look of the 1970s and onward. Solid teak, which again is something that became more common later on. Also the Phillips head screws say it is later.
One thing you might look for is a maker who used the same joint profile between the staves. I can't quite tell in your photo but it looks to be just a straight vertical line. But this is the sort of thing that would carry across to any staved piece the maker made.
Thanks Leif, I agree. The Phillips head had me thinking 70s too. The staves appear to be straight-up, flat butt joints. No dados or splines that I could see. The table was professionally refinished at some point, so screws could have been swapped out, hard to say.
The round chunkiness of the chairs kind of gave me that Domino Mobler feeling, but I have not seen a lot of dining sets from them, and this set just feels a bit more unique than most of the Domino stuff I have seen...
