Hello,

I'm very new to this forum.

My parents have been getting rid of some furniture and I'm trying to help them.

I can't find who might have designed this table, for whom, when and so on.

There are very little informations underneath and i can't find anything similar on the internet, having no info about the item. It was sold with model 71 chairs from Arne Hovmand-Olsen (there again, i'm new and i seem to find 2 different types of chairs, i'm talking about the wooden ones with some black plastic on the handles) back in the days, in a second hand shop.

It's probably teak, closed it measures about 160cm, and then you have two extensions that go in the middle of the table (not on the side), 2 times 40 cm.

So, here are the picture of the danish table about which i'm looking for infos :

 

Thanks in advance for your help

PS: i don't manage to post many pictures at once, so i'll post them separatly until i understand how to do one single post! 😉

Thanks!

Arne Hovmand Olsen, Model 217 for Mogens Kold. Designed probably in 1957.
