Condition
Overall very good condition. The table top is constructed with removable extensions leaves on each side. The wooden top presents to a lacquered finish with some light surface scratches, nicks and dings consistent with age and use. With one old circular area of discoloration to the center of the top measuring approximately 9 ¼ inches in diameter as seen in the catalogue illustration. The chromium-plated metal with scattered areas of oxidation, discoloration and rubbing to the surfaces throughout consistent with age and use. The wooden top presents with rich figuration and the dovetail construction at the corners that highlights the expert craftsmanship of the table. Displaying great scale and proportion, both hallmarks of Kjærholm's architectonic design style.
