This elegant mid-century modern extending coffee table was crafted circa 1960 by the esteemed Danish manufacturer France & Daverkosen. Beautifully constructed in rich, warm teak, the piece exemplifies the refined minimalism and superb craftsmanship of Scandinavian design. Its standout feature is a cleverly engineered drop-down sliding extension, revealing a sleek black Formica surface that offers both a practical and visually striking contrast. The extension slides and clicks effortlessly into place, a testament to the quality and precision of its original construction. This functional design allows the table to transition seamlessly from a compact coffee table to a larger surface ideal for entertaining or display, making it both versatile and stylish. The table retains its original maker’s label from France & Daverkosen and also bears the original retailer’s label from John Stuart Inc. of New York—both affixed to the underside, adding provenance and authenticity. In excellent vintage condition, this piece is a fine example of mid-century Danish furniture that combines elegance, functionality, and enduring appeal.
