First off thanks for all of the information shared here. It has been extremely helpful to me in the past. The designer and age of this table does have me stumped. I know George Tanier was the dealer, but who made and designed the table? Some of the larger names in Danish furniture are associated with Tanier. The table measures 22 inches high and 24 inches round. I think it is a rosewood veneer, oddly the underside is quite nice too.
I have more detailed photos if we think it is necessary.
Thank you

Krenit,
Thanks,
What makes you think it is Finn juhl? The joint on the legs?
It is too bad the retailer C.B. Swift is long gone from Boston. I wonder if the table precedes design research in Cambridge.
What I need to do is buy this book and hope a similar or the same table is in there. http://www.trevianbooks.com/shop/trevian/008781.html
Although 265 usd is a steep price.

Anyone that lives near Rutgers, university of Miami, UCBerkeley, London metro university, care to scan through the book and see it if the table is in it.

Carl Jacobs? I would love for the table to be Finn Juhl but I just don't think it is.
I can't find a table on design museum danmark but this chair by Carl Jacobs has a similar leg. It is also a George Tanier selection.

Well, I think I found it. ...
Well, I think I found it. Not much of a mystery......
It is either George Tanier himself. Or Arne vodder
Thanks to http://resideinc.com/ for the suggestion to look at design museum danmark. http://furnitureindex.dk/
If you are ever in Boston or Cambridge Massachusetts be sure to check out her shops.
I would still like to see the book one day I will come across it.
The first table is George Tanier t7
The second is Arne Vodder t9

Furniture Forum has a few Tanier pages in the 1953 or 54 edition. Says it was designed by George Tanier himslelf.
