Does anybody here recognize any of these attributions on this butterfly leaf teak table?
Brass hardware and alignment pins. Dovetail connections at the side stile cross members.

Close-up of wood after sanding and oiling. Afromorsia?

legs and apron are mahogany or one of its substitutes. Top is teak. Very odd construction for a Scandinavian piece. Could it be British?

Goog question...
Did you notice the picture of the butterfly hinge says SG Manufacturing, U.K. ?
Some further, interesting observations:
Thick, angled teak edge banding around perimeter of entire top.
Very well done and precise mortise and tenon joinery.
All secondary wood is beech.
