I got this convertible teak table at a local thriftstore, but can find no information on the maker. It is stamped "VM Made In Denmark" on the bottom, along with a stamp of the word "Patentanm" in large letters. I have not been able to find anything on the web, although someone else had asked the forum about a Danish headboard stamped "VM" but got no response. The workmanship seems to be quite good, and the hardware (hinges, screws) look fairly old. TIA.

Vejle Møbelsnedkeri
Could be Vejle Mobelfabrik. Thats just a guess going by the VM provided. Very nice find. Feel like I should be living somewhere else with all these great finds popping up everywhere but here.

Vm Danish table
Hi I've just found your posting. I've got what sounds exactly like the table you have described. I remember my parents buying it back in the 60's. It is a low coffee table which lifts up to normal table height and also has 2 side extensions.
I'd be very interested to know if you've managed to find anything else out about it. Mine needs some work doing to it, as it wobbles and the top needs stripping due to water damage, but I'm pretty sure that's all superficial.
regards Liz

Several years on, I have been seeing a number of these tables cited as Vildbjerg Møbelfabrik, with Kai Kristiansen the designer.

I have a
VERY similar one and, at the time, attributed it to Trioh, as there seemed to be quite a few made by them in a very similar manner. Attached a pic for yucks...maybe I'll do a bit more research based on your suggestion

well
mine is a bit different upon further review. Equally good looking but maybe not as refined.
