Description
Elevate your dining room with this grand, extending table that has great provenance. Designed by Niels Otto Møller in the 1960s for JL Møller Møbelfabrik, this very fine, attributed piece arrived with us in rather sad condition. Although we knew it was something special, it was grubby and had a repair-gone-wrong on the table top. It went to off to our French polisher who wove his magic, finishing the table with high gloss lacquer and knocking back that poor damage to the veneer so that it’s now barely noticeable. It’s a stunning piece, showing that an every-day item of furniture like the humble dining table can be a thing of design beauty and history, as well as robust and functional. A perfect round in its regular mode, comfortably seating four. Pull the two sides apart to find the hidden folded extension in the the middle. This fans out and the side close for a seamless table top that can seat six – eight guests. The glossy table top finish makes the teak wood grain sing and we love the simplicity of the long, tapered solid teak legs.

Condition report:
This original, vintage table is ‘sold as seen’. It is in very good, used condition. The table top has been professionally restored with a high gloss lacquered finish. It’s now in exception condition and the wood grain is beautiful. There is a small patch on the top surface where at some point the table owners have attempted to sand out a mark or scratch, resulting in them going through the veneer, a common DIY issue that we see regularly on vintage pieces. This has been brilliantly disguised by our restoration process and in the overall context of the table top, it’s barely noticeable (do browse our photos) but we wanted to flag this minor flaw and it’s reflected in our price. There are some very minor scuffs and marks to the trim and the legs, but overall this is light and superficial, in line with the table’s age and function. The two sides pull apart to reveal the extension integrated inside. With a simple rotation, this folds out and flattens. The two halves are then pushed back for a seamless table top. The mechanism and runners are all in very good working order. The extension is a touch darker than the two table halves, a common occurrence with vintage tables, quite simply it’s less used and has had less sunlight exposure. It’s a very well constructed table, solid and stable. The JL Møller Møbelfabrik stamp and the Made in Denmark Quality stamp can be seen in place underneath the table. Please do browse our pictures for an accurate sense of its great order – note the line / darker area you see in the photos of the table top is just a reflection of our studio ceiling! If you’ve any questions or wish to view this table, just get in touch.

Cancellations and Returns
Our Terms of sale were designed to treat both Customers and Vendors (including Professional Vendors and Non-Professional Vendors (as defined in the Site Terms)) fairly, in order to make the shopping/selling experience with Vinterior just as exceptional as the items.
We've extended our usual return period for the holidays. Any purchases made in December 2023 on gifting items can be returned up until 31 January 2024.
To protect our Customers from disappointment or the unexpected, we strongly encourage them to closely inspect item photos, descriptions, and details before purchasing anything on the Site, and then again upon delivery or pickup.
If the Customer is unsure about an item's condition, dimensions, quantity, or description, they can send their questions to the item’s Vendor by clicking on Ask the seller on the listing page of the Site.
Customers shall receive the same level of consumer protection on purchases irrespective of whether they are buying from a Professional Vendor or Non-Professional Vendor.
Should you have any questions regarding your transaction, please contact the Vendor in the first instance.
Can I cancel an order?
If a Customer changes their mind or decides for any other reason that they do not want to purchase the Goods before the Goods have been dispatched, they can cancel the order on the Site and receive a refund.
The right to cancel does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the customer’s specific requirements. If in doubt, the Customer can contact the Vendor via the Site.
If the Customer cancels an order after an item has already been marked as dispatched for delivery, the costs of delivery are non-refundable.
To cancel the order, the Customer must follow the cancellation procedure on the Site by clicking on Create Cancellation on the order page.
Can I return an item?
Consumers based in the UK and European Union can request to return the Goods on Vinterior up to 14 days after the Goods have been received. Once accepted, the buyer is in charge of the shipment and should organise it as soon as possible (except in the case of a return of faulty Goods).
To initiate a return, the Customer must click on Create a return on the order page on the Site. In the return request, the reason for the return must be included along with photos of any damage of the Goods, if faulty.
As with cancellations, the right to return an item does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the Customer’s specific requirements.
Additionally, the Customer may not return an item for "inaccurate listing” reason when its dimensions or other characteristics do not fit its requirements. We strongly recommend that buyer measures all access areas prior to making a purchase.
If in doubt, the Customer can contact the Vendor via the Site.
In case of a return, the costs of delivery (i.e., outbound delivery costs when Goods are sent from the Vendor to a Customer) are non-refundable.
The Customer is responsible for organising the return of Goods and for paying delivery costs. Once the item is returned to the Vendor in the same condition, the Vendor will confirm receipt and refund the Customer. If an item is returned to the seller damaged, or in an unsuitable condition, Vinterior will not be able to process the refund and the seller may have to send it back to you (and ask you to cover the delivery costs). All items are inspected on return.
Acting under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, customers may return faulty Goods that are damaged in transportation or the listing on the Site is materially inaccurate, misleading, or misrepresents the Goods. In these cases, the Customer must provide photographic evidence to Vinterior and the Vendor or reject the delivery on arrival.
In case of damage in transit for all items, Vinterior must be informed. Vinterior will then raise an insurance claim on behalf the Vendor with delivery company Proovia. Once the claim is resolved and any relevant decision regarding the insurance has been made, any applicable refunds will be processed.
Please note that vintage items are not sold as new and are likely to show signs of wear and tear. This is not sufficient grounds for a refund.
Vendors may refuse a return of an item if it has been altered by the Customer in any way.
Neither Vinterior nor the Vendors are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
