Ernst Hansen Mid-Century Round Extending Dining Set – Teak with 5 Chairs (6th Available upon request for fee)

The perfect mid-century modern design for small spaces. Sits 4-6 comfortably (with the option of a sixth chair however the 6th chair does need some work and will be sold as restored condition for a fee).

A stunning example of Australian mid-century furniture, this Ernst Hansen round extension dining table features beautiful teak timber with a warm, rich glow and elegant tapered legs. The table extends smoothly with a hidden leaf mechanism, making it highly practical for everyday use or entertaining. Paired with five matching chairs (with comfortable black vinyl/upholstered seats), this set showcases clean lines and timeless Scandinavian-inspired design with a distinctly Australian craftsmanship.

These complete Ernst Hansen dining sets are becoming increasingly rare on the market today — especially in original configuration with matching chairs and all stamps intact. As one of the lesser-documented but high-quality Melbourne makers, surviving examples in good vintage condition are highly sought after by collectors and MCM enthusiasts.

Classic Australian made piece by Ernst Hansen, Hawthorn (stamps and Victorian Guild of Furniture Manufacturers sticker all present and visible).
Condition: Good vintage condition with minor wear consistent with age (all visible in photos). Table shows some finish wear in places but still presents beautifully with a lovely patina. Chairs are solid. All stamps are present. A sixth chair is available on request (requires refinish and glue-up). We’re ideally looking for a buyer who appreciates this set in its authentic “as-is” vintage condition, but we’d love the opportunity to restore it further if that suits you and you so wish — get in touch to discuss options. (This would only be restored for a fair fee if a potential buyer was wanting a high quality finish/ understanding it would reflect in a much higher cost)
