Nice coffee table with cane shelf, the logo is a little fuzzy and I don't recognize it. FR? FB? or not an F at all?? A couple pics for context. Thanks in advance.

@raijin; Welcome to the Forum. That is the logo for Anton Kildeberg.

Image borrowed from Danish-Modern.co.uk

Model 214. Designed by Kai Aage Lauritzen Vang.

Thanks Lexi, I would not have guessed AK! I picked up 8 other pieces from the same sale and 7 of them were Peter Hvidt but I knew this was not. Great job.

@raijin. This logo has been discussed on this Forum on previous occasions ,which is why it is familiar to me. Lovely design.

Raijin, any photos of the other pieces? Always fun to see pics of a haul.

This is a pair of coffee tables, I have already started refinishing them. The one of the left is Kurt Otervig and on the right a solid teak table by Peter Hvidt for John Stuart.

These are a the classic Peter Hvidt sofa and chair which looked to have been reupholstered in the 80s or 90s in this lovely fabric (lol). Seems I can only post one pic per post so...

And then there was this monstrosity, 3 Peter Hvidt Minerva sofas-daybeds (one is a loveseat). They incased the back piece in a wood box that went all the way across and down. The back legs were tossed and they drilled all the way through the original backrest to secure it to the box. This pic shows the box opened to reveal the original backrest inside. When I bought them I took the gamble that it was still there. I still need to replace the back legs and fill the holes but I plan to get them back to respectability.

 

Thanks for the tip on posting multiple pics!

Nice haul. Good luck on the Minerva restoration. Not sure if I've seen as much Frankensteining to a Danish piece before.
