Description

Gangsø Møbler Danish Modern Teak Tile-Inlay Expandable Dining Table & 4 Chairs, c. 1970s

A complete Danish Modern dining suite in teak by Gangsø Møbler, comprising an expandable trestle table with inset ceramic tile top and a set of four hoop-back spindle side chairs. The table centers on sixteen hand-decorated stoneware tiles set flush into the teak surface, arranged in a geometric diamond composition rendered in earthy ochres, umbers, and creams — the tile motif continuing into smaller matching panels on each drop leaf when extended. Twin pedestal supports rest on sled feet joined by a central stretcher, allowing the leaves to fold cleanly against the base for compact everyday use or open wide for a generous dining footprint.

The four matching chairs carry a bowed hoop back with seven turned spindles over a thick, saddled solid teak seat — a Danish interpretation of the English Windsor form, pairing naturally with the tile-top table in scale, tone, and silhouette. A paper label on the underside reads "K.D. Furniture — Manufactured by Sun Furniture Co Ltd — Made in Thailand — For Export", consistent with Thai production of Danish-export furniture during the 1970s–80s, a common arrangement for quality Danish-designed pieces destined for international markets. Tile-top dining tables in this idiom are closely associated with Gangsø Møbler, whose ceramic-and-teak work defined the form during this period.


CONDITION

Good overall. A water spot is present on the teak top, along with minor scuffing and small chips in less visible areas. Tiles are intact with no cracks observed. Chairs are solid and structurally sound with light wear to the finish. From a smoke-free and pet-free home.
