Poul Jensen end/coffee tables  

Thanks for posting this tchp.
There has been speculation as to the correct attribution of these tables on a previous thread, I think the conclusion we reached was Johannes Andersen.
Nice to see a conclusive answer.

Hi...
... I can't attribute the coffee tables, but they both are definitely NOT designed by Johannes Andersen.

Thanks H.Moon. I believe...
Thanks H.Moon. I believe this might be the thread, although I think there was more than one thread speaking of the CFC Silkeborg connection.

On a related topic, does anyone here in Europe have a Z-chair that was bought in Europe? If so, are there any maker's marks on them? It seems like all of the Selig import pieces to the US consciously did not identify the maker, only the importer (and designer in their literature).

Regarding the vintage Selig Danish Collection catalog, I was a little surprised to find that they offered the Mogens Kold dining chair by Hovmand Olsen, as well as the Nanna and Jorgen Ditzel "Barrel Chair". I have never seen examples of these with Selig emblems on them however.

Actually, I see now that it is not too hard to find the Nanna Ditzel chair online with the Selig emblem on it.

This seems like a good thread to post my latest acquisition that just showed up at lunch today: a minimal teak desk with front bookshelf, model 83-07, designed by Knud and Erik Christensen for Selig. Similar to their coffee and end tables, the desk has upturned edges on the sides and back. The side detail is a little more interesting as the raised edges taper down to be flush at the front edge.
Some joints need regluing and the desk top needs attention, but otherwise in pretty good shape. I had not come across this desk design before, and even now could only find one other example online.
The attached vintage documentation is from Furniture Forum 1962.

Nice find! I've never seen one of those outside of documentation either.

Oh, and the Selig tables with "gallery edges" that started this thread were designed by Knud and Erik Christensen. There is no controversy at all.

Yes i agree they were def not designed by Johannes Andersen.

Hi Leif, I can't find documentation for this rectangular Knud and Erik Christensen table. I found a close one in Mobilia but it's said to be by C.F. Christensen and is quite different. Would you have any reliable source? Thanks

Let's start with why you think it is a Knud and Erik Christensen design? That will help me track down where I might have documentation.

my knowledge in Scandinavian design is way too limited to claim anything! The only thing I rely on is documentation. In a previous post you said that the tables "that started this thread were designed by Knud and Erik Christensen". I would be more than happy to believe you. Therefor, I was looking for documentation to support you, but haven't been able to find anything. This is why I was wondering if you had vintage books/magazines to confirm it. The purpose of it is that a friend of mine has an identical table and I'm trying to help him out. thanks in advance

That coffee table you posted is a completely different one. The Knud and Erik Christensen designs were imported by Selig and they have the "raised gallery edges" whatever that means. See the first post by tchp for examples.
And yes, I've seen multiple Selig catalogs confirming the design credit. I don't know what company made them though.
