How do you identify Danish teak furniture?

1 Answer
How do you identify Danish teak furniture?
To identify Danish teak furniture, look for stamps, labels and tags that bear a maker's mark. You can consult trusted online resources to determine who produced your piece and whether it is a Danish maker. From there, research the company, workshop or artisan to find out if it produced pieces out of teak wood and search online catalogues to see if you can find your item and learn more about its materials. Knowing the characteristics of teak wood can also be helpful. It often has a smooth, straight grain and tends to be dense. Colors vary, but fine-quality pieces often have a golden-brown hue. When in doubt about your furniture, have a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer assist you. Shop a selection of Danish teak furniture on 1stDibs.
