I will guess hack job since I don't see the proud black Allen key bolts typical of Glostrup. But I could be wrong...
Should be easy to tell in person. Empty screw holes on the underside would be the give away. Or patched empty screw holes.

Tks very much for your response Leif!! When to have a look at table this evening and it's indeed a jalk top on H W Klein base, also saw those unplugged screw holes that you advised.

It is surprising that it looks so good for a mismatched marriage.  
As a thought experiment, it makes me wonder how broadly the principle would apply that coffee table feet could be mixed and matched, and not look like hack jobs?
