@lexi thanks for the additional info. @cdsilva you're correct: the Wegner greatest hits end there. There were later designs for Tuck that I will never fully understand. You find an avalanche of funny side tables with sharp edges and squared legs that do not do full justice to both Tuck and Wegner. These came before the end of the golden era.

@cdsilva - Do you know who was responsible for the tables that @andersen refers to and which are usually attributed to Wegner?

@herringbone this is a great collection here. thanks a lot. The AT-12 (second from top) came in different versions (length, metal versus oak legs). Same for the one you put on the very bottom (teak or rosewood veneer, squared or not). Well, they are not only attributed to Wegner, but designed by Hans Wegner too according to the labels you find on those.

@andersen ah, okay, just did a quick Google search and included whatever seemed appropriate. So they are definitely Wegner? Well, they look as if they have been designed way after 1960.

My wording in my last post was not accurate. I should have said that the Bernsen book does not list any AT designs by Wegner after 1960. While that index of Wegner designs is excellent, and the most comprehensive of any list I've come across, it may not necessarily be 100% complete. Those designs definitely do look post-1960, so it may have been a s simple as Bernsen not having any access to any AT catalogs after 1960/61.
