Mid century Kai Kristiansen extendable elevator table
A mid century teak extendable “elevator” table which converts from a coffee table to a dining table, designed by Kai Kristiansen for Danish furniture brand Vildbjerg Møbelfabrik in the 1960s.
An iconic and rare mid century design by an esteemed name in the mid century world, this table is beautifully crafted using teak and Afromosia (African teak) woods to provide a vibrant colour contrast.
This ingenious design at first looks like a stylish long john coffee table, with a sleek slatted magazine rack below a teak top. But using a hidden frame, it can be elevated to dining table height. The sides even extend, making it a comfortable 4 seater (possibly even 6!).
This is the perfect table for small spaces such as flats where space is limited. It’s really easy to convert on your own, and folds back down in seconds. It’s also really sturdy when it’s built, a testament to it’s good design.
A rare opportunity to purchase such a cool and practical piece of mid century furniture.
The price also includes free shipping to most mainland UK locations as standard.
