This is a five-piece dining set from Sutcliffe of Todmorden, a long-established British furniture brand.
This highly practical round table can be used in different situations by expanding the retractable auxiliary top. The warm texture of the vintage teak, the simple and clean appearance, and the beautiful details of the smoothly joined legs are eye-catching. Designed to fit the curve of the chair backs around the table, this is a piece with the charm of British mid-century style.
After the war, modern Scandinavian design became very popular, and Scandinavian-style furniture began to be made in the UK as well. The UK's high level of technology and production capacity, which had a foundation in traditional furniture making, made it possible to produce high-quality furniture. Representative British manufacturers include G-PLAN, which was one of the first to adopt Danish design, and the long-established Scottish manufacturers AHMcIntosh and Nathan. There were also many other excellent Scandinavian-style furniture manufacturers. Scandinavian-style furniture made in the UK during the mid-century period is still highly regarded today for its quality and design that is comparable to authentic Scandinavian furniture, and has become increasingly popular in recent years.
