For a long time it has been attributed to Kai Kristiansen who was designing for FM.

The table is crafted from richly grained rosewood, showcasing deep tones and beautifully patterned veneer that highlight the natural beauty of the material. The table has two inner leaves. One has an apron, and the veneer perfectly matches the wood pattern on two sides. The table extended with one leaf creates a beautiful oval shape. The second leaf is in slightly different veneer. In smaller Danish homes from the mid-20th century, there was not so much space, and it seems like the tables were rarely open with 2 leaves. In many tables, that second one is treated as a spare one.

The table's dimensions are: 

- 115 cm when unfolded
- 170cm when opened with one leaf
- 225 cm when opened with two leaves
- total height: 71 cm
- height to the apron: 65 cm

The table has been renovated. The surface has been carefully refinished with new layers of satin lacquer, revealing the depth of the rosewood grain. The extension mechanism has been checked and works properly. This piece remains in excellent vintage condition with minor signs of use. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
