A solid teak, drop leaf dining table by Peter Hvidt and Orla Molgaard-Nielsen for France & Son Denmark. Beautiful high quality construction with amazing brass details.
This is an elegant oval shape with old-growth teak and incredible geometric design. Really gorgeous from all angles. Drop-leaf function makes it great for small spaces as it can fold and put up against a wall. 17.5" wide when both leaves are folded down. France & Son labels are present.
Dimensions: W 64" x D 55" x H 28.25
About the Designers:
Peter Hvidt (1916–1986) and Orla Mølgaard-Nielsen (1907–1993) formed their studio in 1944 and worked together until the mid-1970s. Their partnership was grounded in a shared background in architecture and cabinetmaking—an intersection that would define their work’s remarkable balance between engineering and elegance.
They were early pioneers of Danish modernist export furniture, creating pieces that could be flat-packed, shipped, and assembled abroad without sacrificing quality or style. This not only made their work internationally accessible but also helped spread Danish design globally.
