@swellmell Looks like literally millions of mid century tables I've seen. Any details? Markings? More info?

Hi there. No markings, nothing. Just the leg is distinctive. I've seen a few of them in France. Could they possibly be 1960's Italian....?

@swellmel.

Could you post pics of the underside of the table, especially how legs are attached and extension mechanism.

Thanks in advance.

@swellmel. It is possibly Norwegian. This table or very similar ones, has been discussed on a Norwegian FB Forum and the consensus is that is made by Viken Mobelfabrik, Model "Duke". Fredrik Kayser was the main designer for this company. None of the tables give good pics of the legs but the fact that they are not completely round at the top was mentioned.

Posting an image of the underside of one of these tables and I have to say it is remarkably like yours.
