The tabletop features softly rounded corners with sculpted detailing beneath the frame. Four tapered legs support the table structure. The table incorporates two integrated draw leaves that extend from either end, sliding smoothly on wooden runners built into the frame. The leaves are flush with the primary top when closed and draw out horizontally to increase the dining surface.

The design employs minimalist forms balanced with organic shaping: tapered legs taper to fine points at the floor, the top edge is rounded, and the apron beneath carries gentle sculptural detail. The table is finished on all sides. The teak exhibits visible grain variation throughout, with the draw leaves retaining a noticeably darker chocolate-brown tone from their concealed storage, contrasting with the warmer golden-amber of the primary top surface.

Vejle Stole og Møbelfabrik manufacturers' stamp with quality control mark is affixed to the underside. Characteristic of 1960s Danish production: refined cabinetmaking, tapered proportions, and functional extension mechanism executed with precision joinery. This piece has an attribution mark,
