Hi there, just bought this coffee table, cause it's looks absolutely stunning. However, can't find any makers mark. Search on Google didn't return anything similar. I think you're my last hope. Thank you

Hi, looks like a Louis van Teeffelen table, just google him.

@mvc  I was thinking van Teeffelen at first.  There have been a few of these tables for sale on Vinterior and another one on Etsy.  Two of those attributed to G-Plan but did not show any marks.  Based on style and location of sellers, G-Plan seems likely.

Well, location of sellers, I just googled the table and I found many of this models offered by sellers located in Netherland. But not a single table was Wébé labeled. So maybe G-Plan.

Btw, merry Christmas!

@mvc  Merry Christmas to you as well!  I suppose your Google results might give you more "local" results than mine.  The one currently for sale on Vinterior (attributed to G-Plan) is actually in Poland. The table reminds me a little of my "Ponti-inspired" table in terms of quality, the rounded leg/apron design, and the way the top rests on the base.

I think you are right, when I take a closer look at the details ... it's not a van Teeffelen.

(I also had to think about your "Ponti" table.) 😎

Dank je @wesemael, the old televisions and radios are funny! 

Attached a link to an UK ebay seller, his table is very similar to the one of @octa199

@mvc  Looking at some of the sold listings on Ebay.uk, I saw three examples of @octa199 table.  These two attributed to G-Plan and the other listed G-plan, Nathan and Ercol as possibilities.  

@wesemael  Did V&D sell furniture from makers like G-Plan or did they contract with manufacturers to make pieces under their own label?  Thank you for the links to the Teeffelen info.

Hope you all had a happy and peacefull Xmas.

I have trawled through some G-Plan archives and have not found this table....will keep looking.

However,I did come across one seller in the UK, who also has an interest in and collects catalogues/brochures for British manufacturers.They have sold a number of these tables over the years but have never been able to identify a maker or designer!

@lexi  Happy Christmas and New Year's to you.  It is odd that none of these tables in question, even with the solid tops, seems to have a mark or tag.   I saw a couple of other G-Plan tables with this mark.  Did they typically mark all of their pieces in the 50's and 60's?

@mark737. I couldn't tell you if their furniture is generally marked. The stamp you posted is certainly one of the more familiar ones.
