Mid-Century Danish Teak Coffee Table – In the Style of Arne Hovmand-Olsen for Mogens Kold, 1960s

Clean, modern lines define this stylish Danish coffee table, strongly reminiscent of the elegant forms by Arne Hovmand-Olsen, whose work was retailed through Mogens Kold (MK) in the 1960s. With a beautifully architectural silhouette, this piece also evokes the form of the Quadrille series by G-Plan, although it carries no maker’s marks and is a rare style we haven’t seen before.

Lightweight yet sturdy, this is a truly versatile piece—equally at home in a curated mid-century interior, a stylish coffee shop, or a contemporary breakout space in a hotel lobby or reception. The U-shaped legs lend sculptural poise while the tabletop showcases a rich, warm teak grain—timeless, tactile, and beautifully proportioned.

The table has been sympathetically restored: degreased, lightly sanded, and re-oiled to nourish and protect the wood and veneer for the years ahead. All joints are tight and secure. It remains in good vintage condition with only minor signs of age such as light scuffs or dings, as to be expected from a well-loved original piece.

The design is pure Scandinavian modernism—elegant, minimalist, and functional. Hovmand-Olsen’s legacy as a prolific Danish designer lives on through pieces like this, which embody the clarity and refinement of 20th-century Nordic design.

Sustainable, design-led, and full of character—this is vintage furniture at its best.
