Very rare dining table model C18 designed by Børge Mogensen for FDB Mobler 1947. This table was designed in 1947 and produced in the mid-1960s. The table is made of light-colored oak, has a sturdy base and a generous table top.
The trestle legs are recessed and allow the user to enjoy a generous amount of leg room. It is in very neat original condition with traces of use in the form of a somewhat darker discoloration due to age and use. The man of the house sat on this spot every day, which may explain the traces.
The table is marked 2x at the bottom on the legs.
The first owners bought this table in the 1960s in a shop specialized in modern living, it was an exclusive and expensive purchase at the time. The condition is very neat, the table has been used satisfactorily for decades, which gives the whole a fitting patina. The construction is extremely solid.
A pioneer of rationalist design, Børge Mogensen was known as 'the people's designer' – partly because of his engaging personality, but also because he always designed quality furniture that was within reach of people.
He was a follower of Kaare Klint, for whom he worked after graduating from the Danish art academy. Later in 1950 he started his own studio and created a fantastic range of simple lines and affordable, yet elegant and sophisticated furniture.
