Description

Benny Linden Teak Dining Set – 6 Chairs, Danish Modern, 2 Extension Leaves

This seven-piece dining set, designed by Benny A. Linden (b. 1929), exemplifies the fusion of Scandinavian design and Thai craftsmanship. Manufactured in Thailand during the 1970s, the set includes a solid teak extension table and six high-back rail chairs, each bearing the original "Benny Linden Design" maker's label.

The table features a 2-inch thick top and distinctive 2-inch bowed pedestal legs, extending from 73" to 112" with two 19.5" leaves. The chairs, constructed from solid Burmese teak, showcase contoured slat backs and original beige upholstery over 1.5-inch turned legs. Linden's designs are renowned for their ergonomic comfort and minimalist aesthetics, comparable to the works of Niels O. Møller and other Danish masters.​

Benny Linden's furniture gained popularity in North America during the late 20th century, celebrated for its quality construction and timeless design. This set stands as a testament to his legacy, offering both functionality and mid-century elegance.​


Condition:

In very good condition overall. The teak wood retains a rich, even tone with only light surface wear. Both leaves have a small 1/8" indentation, as noted. Only the chair upholstery shows wear—with minor staining on most seats and one chair more heavily marked. Structurally sound and well-maintained.


Dimensions (inches):

  • Table Height: 29"
  • Table Width: 44"
  • Table Length: 73" (closed), 92.5" (1 leaf), 112" (2 leaves)
  • Chair Overall: 38"H x 19"W x 20"D
  • Seat: 18"H x 19"W x 17"D​

A timeless, functional dining suite that celebrates the elegance of Scandinavian design. Don’t miss your chance to own an iconic Benny Linden original—perfect for modern and vintage interiors alike.
