Anybody an idea who made this table?
No results after extensive research, no stamps, no labels, nothing, thanks.

Hmmm
Can you confirm:
The top looks like teak veneer, maybe, but there isn't much to see
The leg looks like stained beech (oak?) (on account of the rays)
And the apron is completely questionable.
Seems like wood species might be helpful in narrowing the region of origin especially in this case.
And do you rotate the top 90 degrees when you fold it open?

Top teak veneer, that's right.
Apron and legs of oak.
And yes, the top rotates 90 degrees when you fold it open.
Location is Germany, so it might be german or danish.
Never had, never seen, no idea!!!

Looks similar Finn Juhl to me
The leg and apron/ skirt design look very derivative of Finn Juhl and the wood selection is very Scandinavian. The flip top I've not seen on a Juhl design before, though he did do drop leaves.
Unlikely a Juhl piece, but looks very "inspired by".
