A thoughtfully crafted Danish dining table by Skovby, made in the 1960s, embodies the quiet ingenuity and enduring principles of Scandinavian design. Constructed in oak, with a solid oak frame, the table offers both strength and warmth through its finely grained timber. In its closed form, the table presents a compact, square silhouette—measured and modest, well-suited to more intimate settings. Yet, with the graceful addition of its two extension leaves, it unfolds into a generous dining surface, capable of hosting larger gatherings with ease and dignity. This harmonious transformation speaks to a time when furniture was made not only to serve, but to adapt and endure. The table has been carefully sanded and finished with Osmo raw oil, preserving the wood’s natural character while lending it a soft, contemporary tone. The finish enhances the oak’s texture without masking its history, allowing the material to speak with quiet confidence. A piece both practical and poetic—rooted in tradition, yet ever relevant to the modern home. Materials: Beautifully crafted from teakwood. Wood Finish: All surfaces are sanded in a hand mechanic manner to avoid the use of chemical strippers and re-polished with high-quality oils to give a "good as new" professional finish. All the products used in the restoration process are environment-friendly. Construction: Joints are stress tested to ensure they are sturdy and solid. All items shown are fully restored and ready for shipping. Dimensions: Closed: 100 X 100 cm. Extended: 200 X 100 cm. Height: 72.5 cm.
