Extendable teak table by Rogenstrup Möbelfabrik, Denmark, 1960s

This dining table, manufactured in the 1960s by the Danish manufacturer Rogenstrup Möbelfabrik, exemplifies the period’s typical approach to the design of utilitarian furniture, combining simplicity of form with careful attention to material and proportion. The company was one of many Danish firms that, during the post-war export boom, specialised in producing teak furniture, primarily for Western European and US markets.

The table’s construction is based on a clear, functional form. The teak tabletop showcases the natural grain pattern and warm colouring characteristic of the species. The piece is supported by slender, turned legs that provide stability without visually overwhelming the form of the furniture. The joinery solutions are understated, subordinated to durability and ease of everyday use.

Designs for tables of this type were created with flexible use in domestic interiors in mind—often as a central element of a dining room or living room. This model follows that tradition, maintaining a balance between functionality and the calm, timeless aesthetic characteristic of 1960s Danish design.

The piece has undergone meticulous, professional restoration involving the removal of old finishes, staining, and lacquer finishing. The restoration was carried out by a talented and experienced cabinetmaker with over 20 years of experience. As a result, the table looks excellent and will serve its new owner for many years without concern about damage or deterioration through everyday use.

When extended, the table measures 218 cm across.
