This is the Fresco series 5-piece dining set designed by Victor Bramwell Wilkins for G-PLAN, a representative British mid-century brand.
The round extension table is the centerpiece of the mid-century G-PLAN collection. It is a basic and versatile table that can be combined with G-PLAN Fresco, Sierra, Danish and other teak series. The extension table can be easily expanded without changing the size of the table by unfolding the extension top stored under the top to the center. It can be used for 2 to 4 people on a regular basis, and can be used for 6 people by quickly expanding the top when you have guests.
This is the most popular standard model among the Fresco series dining chairs. It has a highly cushioned round seat and a cushioned backrest, making it extremely comfortable to sit on. The gently arched curve of the backrest can be coordinated with the edge line of a G-PLAN round dining table to create a unified look. The smooth lines that run from the legs to the plywood backrest are very beautiful, making this chair very picturesque when viewed from behind.
The Fresco series is said to be the best-selling series of G-PLAN, which took the world by storm in the UK about 50 years ago. Following the Danish series of 1960, the original design was created by Ib Kofod-Larsen and has a strong Nordic feel, using teak wood. It is still the most popular series that symbolizes G-PLAN today.
The design has details in common with the circular table designed as part of the Fresco series living collection. It is a long table called a long john table that goes well with a three-seater sofa. It is a highly practical table with a glass top in the center and a rack underneath that doubles as a display and storage space.
