Teak dining table, model 227, designed by Arne Vodder and manufactured by Sibast

Arne Vodder was a prominent figure in the golden age of mid-century Danish furniture design, known for his organic and functional approach. The 227 model, manufactured by the esteemed Sibast, is a testament to his mastery in creating highly adaptable pieces without compromising elegance. The ability to extend considerably through drop-leaves and additional extension leaves illustrates the innovation and practicality inherent in 1950s Scandinavian design, which aimed to optimize space and functionality in modern domestic environments. The use of teak lends the table durability and a rich patina, characteristics highly valued during this period.
