From the golden era of Danish furniture design, this solid oak dining table by Henning Kjaernulf for EG Møbler is a bold and sculptural statement piece. Kjaernulf is best known for his celebrated 'Razorblade' chairs produced by Nyrup Mobelfabrik, and this table reflects the same confident design sensibility.
The design features beautifully turned legs, a decorative scalloped apron, and extension leaves that expand the table generously for entertaining. The warm oak tones and distinctive silhouette give it an undeniable presence. Rare to find in New Zealand, this is a serious collector's piece for any discerning mid-century interior.

Henning Kjærnulf was a Danish designer and architect active during the mid-20th century, whose work evolved from the clean, functional lines of classic Scandinavian modernism to a far bolder, more sculptural expression. His earlier designs reflected the understated elegance typical of Danish craftsmanship, but it was his later pieces, most notably the Razorblade armchairs and dining chairs, along with a series of richly carved oak sideboards and cabinets for Nyrup Møbelfabrik that truly set him apart. These works pushed the boundaries of Scandinavian design, blending traditional woodworking with dramatic ornamentation and architectural detail, resulting in furniture that feels both timeless and daringly expressive.
Currently there is limited authenticated biograplhical information on Henning Kjaernulf, which makes him somewhat an enigma of the Danish mid-century design scene. There are however a number of documented designs that highlight his ability as a furniture designer and architect. Kjaernulf has produced designs for the following Danish furniture makers; Boltinge Stolefabrik, Bruno Hansen Møbelfabrik, EG Kvalitetsmobel, Korup Stolefabrik, Nyrup Møbelfabrik, Ølholm Møbelfabrik, Sorø Stolefabrik, and Vejle Stole og Møbelfabrik.
