MATERIAL:
Oiled teak wood

Info:
The photos are overexposed to show the perfect condition in detail! Reddish tints become redder, and colors generally become lighter. The shaded areas or areas not directly illuminated by the photo light best represent the true colors. Gloss on the photos or grayish or milky areas are also due to exposure or lighting (reflections). The surfaces are semi-matte to semi-glossy.
DIMENSIONS:
approx. Width: cm; Depth: cm; Height: cm; will be provided later
CONDITION:
Not much text is needed here; the table is technically and visually like new and in excellent condition. You will immediately notice the difference compared to other tables offered online - especially due to the often present dents and scratches on the tabletop and legs. There are no defects! It is a perfect 10 out of 10, no ifs, ands, or buts!

FORMER NEW PRICE / LIST PRICE:
is unfortunately not known.
To give an indication, if you were to buy such a Danish table, of this quality, new today, it would be around 1500,-Euro.
PRICE:
Our Whoppah price includes the Whoppah gross commission of a total of 19.36% (16% net commission + 21% proportional Dutch VAT).
Please do not compare our restoration of tables with offers from other providers advertised as "restored" or even "professionally restored," which often consist of merely sprucing up the furniture a little with wood/teak oil or furniture polish, or attempting to remove dents and scratches with DIY store materials. You can recognize this particularly when the tabletops do not appear homogeneously colored but rather patchy. Also, in the area of corners and edges of the tabletops, the aprons, or the legs, dark spots are often visible, indicating that an amateurish attempt was likely made to conceal corresponding dents and scratches. Also, pay attention to light spots (especially in the edge area), as these are abrasions and impacts that have not been treated, or in the case of veneered surfaces, it is often a sign that the veneer is destroyed because it has been sanded through. If you see dark lines running across or not in the direction of the grain, then extreme caution is advised. These are scratches and pressure lines that become even more visible later due to oiling, waxing, or varnishing. The removal
of these traces of use is very complex, requires real professional knowledge and years of experience!
Therefore, look closely when pleasant-sounding adjectives (great, beautiful, etc.) are used in combination with "patina," the ominous "vintage condition," or vague phrases like "ready to live in | age-related, usual signs of wear | very good, excellent, etc. used condition," etc.
Extreme caution is advised if table surfaces appear cloudy or patchy. Here, an attempt was made to save the furniture from disposal and conceal clearly visible defects with tinted clear varnish or colored furniture wax!
Therefore, pay particular attention to whether high-resolution photos and detailed photos are available and whether these also show the typical stressed areas. Otherwise, have corresponding close-ups of the "patina or signs of wear" sent to you and then compare the price-condition ratio. Remember that a qualified restoration is durable and many times the effort of a short-lived sales optimization!
