Gorgeous "Danish/Eames Style" G Plan Nest of Tables that will just add that extra "class" to your Danish/Retro lounge setting. So useful around the house as it can be used for serving food, drinks, keeping items like magazines, keys, newspapers etc.... The solid African Rosewood frame, scrupulous Teak veneering and sculptural frame/legs reflect the classic qualities of the best of Scandinavian furniture of the time. G Plan's adherence to the best Danish designs made them the premier furniture manufacturer of Scandinavian furniture in the UK by volume. These wonderful legs are a prime example. G Plan became a household name in the UK and represented top quality and top priced furniture.
Kalmar of Melbourne received a license to manufacture this design amongst others and they can be readily seen in eBay. The quality however is quite noticeable. Kalmar painted the Maple frames to make it look like Teak and their veneering technique was not as high quality as G Plan. We know as we've had both tables often. The pictures tell the story.
These pieces are getting harder to get in the UK as they are being handed down to the grandchildren who are just re-discovering the timeless designs of 60's "Danish Era". These Nest of Tables are top vintage items and would cost a small fortune today if you had it made. Definitely a collectible & useful classic.
The set is "solid as" and as good as the day they were manufactured.
Overall, the table is about 8.7/10 and in excellent vintage condition with only minor signs of usage. Very careful previous owner who were downsizing and reluctantly giving up a swag of G Plan pieces. ! Large table - Height -510mm, width - 500mm, length -500mm.
