Vintage Conrad Rodd Butterfly Extension Table Tasmanian Blackwood

Vintage Conrad Rodd Butterfly Extension Table In Blackwood 

A rare and highly desirable example of Australian mid-century design, this Conrad Rodd butterfly extension dining table embodies the refined Scandinavian-inspired aesthetic that defined the best of 1950s–70s local furniture making. With its elegant proportions, clean lines, and ingeniously practical self-storing butterfly leaf mechanism, it offers both everyday intimacy and generous entertaining capacity without the need for separate leaf storage.

Presents in good vintage condition with only the expected minimal wear and tear for its age — the kind of honest character that adds warmth and authenticity rather than detracting from its beauty. Timeless and versatile, it is equally at home as a statement dining table for daily use or expanded for larger gatherings.

These tables are some of the rarer most sought after pieces and this one is sure going to fly out the door at this price!

Conrad Rodd (also known under Rodd Design and related trade names), a Berlin-born designer who established himself in Australia after arriving in the early 1940s, produced some of the finest Scandinavian-influenced pieces of the era using quality Australian and complementary timbers. His work is increasingly sought after by collectors, and finding a butterfly extension dining table in this condition is uncommon.
