ABOUT PRODUCTID 29072
Designed by Ole Wanscher for Cado in Denmark during the 1960s, this dining table exemplifies mid-century modern aesthetics. Crafted from mahogany, it features a warm, medium-brown tone with a subtle reddish hue and expressive, natural grain throughout the surface. The tabletop is framed by a solid, rounded edge, supported by four gently tapering, round legs. The table includes two extension leaves, allowing it to expand up to 210 or 270 cm in length. Joinery is precise, with no visible hardware, emphasizing refined craftsmanship. The semi-matte lacquer finish protects the surface and imparts a soft sheen. The table is in excellent, restored condition after professional cabinet work, with no visible signs of wear, damage, or repair.This piece resonates with the spirit of postwar Scandinavia, where restrained detail meets a deep appreciation for material quality. Ole Wanscher’s vision centered on harmony and functionality—here, the table speaks through its pure lines, the gentle glow of mahogany, and the subtle emphasis on wood grain. The softly rounded edges and balanced proportions seem to invite shared meals and conversation without ostentation. It is a table that recalls moments of gathering, quiet focus, and the understated elegance of daily life.The table would suit both a classic dining room with vintage accents and a contemporary interior where natural wood contrasts with minimalist architecture. It can be paired with upholstered chairs in muted shades—such as grey or olive green—or with iconic Danish designs from the 1960s. Surrounded by neutral textiles, delicate pendant lighting, and simple ceramic pieces, the table highlights the collector’s spirit of the space and provides a welcoming setting for dining and gathering.
