Hi!
I am wondering if anyone can help me identify the maker of the table. It came with four Hans Wegner / C.M. Madsen Fabriker oak chairs, and the wood on the legs and apron seems to match the oak chairs.
The top of the table appears to be teak - although it is a bit darker than what I am use to seeing as far as teak. Almost looks like a rosewood color? The table is round and measures 45" in diameter. It is an extension table, but unfortunately, the leaves are missing. The only markings to be found on it, are on the underside - it is stamped "33" in two places, and with a sideways "3" followed by a "33" again in two places on the opposite side.
The last photo shows the mark on the chairs...
If anyone can shine a light on this table for me I would appreciate it!
Thank you, C

My favourite dining chairs, I have a set myself around a circular Wegner table and these pictures have convinced me to reupholster mine in leather.
I don't know who designed the table but I can say with a reasonable amount of confidence that it was not Wegner.

Th top is teak. It is just a bit darker than average. The stamped numbers indicate how to assemble the table and aren't going to be much help in identifying it.
Those extension slides underneath are quite impressive. Unfortunate the leaves are missing as it looks like it would be very long.

A bit of a small tangent, but the seat framing of the Madsen Wegner chairs caught my eye. I don't recall having come across a Wegner dining chair that had corner blocks at the seat rails and that interlocking groove joint (or whatever the actual term is for that joint). I always associated that joint with chair mass production from the 70's and later. I think it's still used today on chairs made in the Far East. While certainly a sturdy joint detail, it seems to be too easy for a Wegner design.
