Those have the "design by Hans J. Wegner" stamp: http://www.lauritz.com/sv/auktion/hans-j-wegner-1914-2007-par-borde-af-p...

This table may be a Tuck that is not Wegner design:

It would be interesting to confirm that and discover a little more about the not-Wegner furniture that Tuck produced.

And here is a matching coffee table from the same period and designer. This one has the 'Tuck Furniture' mark confirming the time period.

I find the round table remarkable, and what is more remarkable, the price it was sold of. It might be that auction houses, sometimes, describe as Hans Wegner everything from Tuck. But it's also true that the examples brought up by Dr. Poulet make clear the double use of the different marks.

For the both of you experts: I have been offered an AT34 for 4000 Euro. What do you think? Thank you for your help!

And I would like to know more about Andreas Tuck as well, especially how his manufacturing has shaped the design of Hans Wegner and other people... for example the new version of the CH26 chair (Carl Hansen) is built differently than what they used to do back then, because the procedure would be too difficult to make it in large scale, if I am not wrong.

I think that I wish I could spend 4000

I am wrong again then. I would like to see some of the Tuck made pieces that are from the post Wegner design collaboration period.

Hi Dr Poulet,

thank you for the link to the book, which I will consider to buy. I hope I can get the AT34 for cheaper than 4000. It's certainly an investment if I'll be lucky to buy it, and certainly the most expensive item I have ever bought!

Hallo Dr Poulet,

sorry to resurrect this post, but I have another piece of the puzzle for the AT-17 tables. I came across, this morning, on a table identical to the one I asked for before at #10, but just smaller. I found an example of a smaller AT-17 here:

http://www.luca-inc.com/furniture/sales-archive/hans-j-wegner%e3%80%80at...

It makes me concluding that the AT-17 is actually a small family of tables of different sizes, but the manufacturing remains the same, as the way the wood is cut is really identical for all of them.

Cheers,

Ernerst

PS: I did not buy the cube bar in the end, as I hope to find one cheaper one day... 🙂
