Het onderstel bestaat uit een interessante combinatie van geborsteld stalen details en Santos Palissander hout. 

Het blad van de tafel is net zoals het onderstel in geoliede Santos Palissander. De tafel kan uitgeschoven en verlengd worden met een blad dat opgeborgen in de tafel blijft door middel van een uitklapsysteem.

The tabletop, crafted from well-preserved rosewood veneer, radiates the same deep, warm tones that make the wood so precious. The lively grain and rich texture of the wood emphasize a refined simplicity, a tribute to artisanal craftsmanship. The matte finish provides a contemporary character.

The table legs are made of solid Santos rosewood and reinforce the cohesion of the design. Polished metal details on the legs add a subtle shine, echoing the metal elements of the matching chairs. This combination of wood and metal creates a balance between organic warmth and modern finesse. The table embodies a fusion of materials that exude both luxury and timeless elegance.

This table is extendable, and the integrated extension leaf matches the fixed leaves perfectly in both color and grain structure.

Stor y

Thereca is a furniture manufacturer founded in 1870 that underwent several transformations over the years. For instance, this design by Sven Ivar Dysthe was produced around the 1970s, when the company was acquired under the name Rob Veen Meubelen. In 2001, Thereca shifted its focus to healthcare and project furnishing. As a result, design pieces such as this dining table were discontinued, meaning only a few vintage pieces can still be found on the market, making them extremely unique.

Dysthe, a rarity among Norwegian designers of his time, studied outside his homeland at the London Royal College of Arts, the renowned institution that has recently produced contemporary designers such as Max Lamb, Simon Hasan, James Irvine, Philippe Malouin, and Sarah van Gameren of Studio Glithero.


Dysthe graduated in 1954 with a degree in industrial design—and the rare distinction of a first-class graduate—and toured Scandinavia for his first job: first in Copenhagen, at the design firm of Peter Hvidt and Orla Mølgaard Nielsen; then back in Oslo, where in 1956, commissioned by furniture manufacturer Hiorth & Østlyngen, Dysthe produced his beech, teak, and woven seagrass Model 316 Dining Chair, a robust and honest example of where Scandinavian design was heading at the time.
