Gate Leg Table White Molgaard

First edition France & Daverkosen, therefore before 1957, for this very beautiful Gate Leg table by Danish designers Hvidt & Mølgaard. A true creation of Mid-Century Modern Scandinavian design, its legs give it all its originality, but it is mainly the beautiful grain and patina of the top that make this piece almost unique. Transformable into a console or a demi-lune, it is also a very practical piece of furniture, made from very beautiful solid teak. The Gate Leg table is a type of furniture first designed in England in the 16th century. It is a drop-leaf table, consisting of a fixed top and one or two drop leaves, as well as movable legs that pivot to keep the leaves open and support them.
