About the Item
Presenting a charming Scandinavian freestanding desk or dining table dating from the early 20th century. This versatile piece features a warm wooden tabletop combined with a contrasting red-painted base, creating a distinctive and characterful expression rooted in traditional Scandinavian craftsmanship.
The table is extendable with 2 leaves of 22.5 cm each allowing it to expand effortlessly to a total width of 186 cm. Its drop-leaf extensions on each side enable it to function as a compact writing desk or transform into a small dining or work table when needed. A single, discreet drawer at the front provides practical storage for writing utensils or small essentials, emphasizing the piece’s functional design.
The painted base displays a rich patina developed over time, while the natural wood top adds warmth and balance to the overall composition. Subtle carved details and sturdy construction reflect a thoughtful blend of utility and understated decoration.
This adaptable table suits a wide range of interiors, including Scandinavian, Folk Art, Mid Century Modern, Country House, and antique spaces. A refined and practical example of early Scandinavian furniture, designed to meet everyday needs while maintaining timeless appeal.
