Josef Frank Model 771 Dining Table for Firma Svenskt Tenn, With Three Leaves
This Model 771 dining table by Josef Frank for Svenskt Tenn is a great example of his softer, more inviting approach to functional design. The round form makes it feel naturally social, while the central pedestal base keeps the space underneath open and easy to use, especially when seating more people around the table.
The top is crafted in pyramid mahogany, with a rich grain that changes beautifully depending on the light. A subtle edge detail adds quiet contrast without taking away from the overall simplicity of the design.
In its closed form, the table measures approximately 51 inches in diameter. With all three extension leaves inserted, it extends to roughly 116 inches in length, offering flexibility from everyday use to larger gatherings. Height is approximately 28.3 inches, and each leaf measures around 21.7 inches.
What stands out most is the balance between intimacy and scale. It feels compact and comfortable when closed, yet transforms easily into a much larger dining surface when needed, making it a very practical and adaptable piece.
Condition is good vintage. There is light wear consistent with age and use, nothing unusual, and overall the table presents very well.
As with all vintage pieces, signs of use are part of the story. Colors can look slightly different depending on the light. If you'd like more details, just let me know.
