I have recently bought this Early Dansk teak chopping board and was wondering if it was indeed designed by Jens Quistgaard?

The IHQ/JHQ mark means it...
The IHQ/JHQ mark means it was designed by Quistgaard.

I also have one of these ...
... that was bought in 1968 in Copenhagen. I never realized that they were selling today at such exorbitant prices 🙂

Decided to revive this old...
Decided to revive this old thread as there is some related content to my below question.
Does anyone have a Dansk catalog (or simply model numbers) for these particular teak oval end grain butcher block cutting boards? I have the pre-1964 catalog from the tpederzani website, which is very helpful but doesn't show this particular line.
I believe these boards come in 18", 24", and 30" lengths (attached photo is 18" and 24"). Based on Dansk's numbering patterns for other similar grouped pieces, I would expect that these boards are numbered consecutively.
Thanks.
