  • A very rare and Iconic Mid-Century ‘Fresco’ Oval Extendable Teak Dining Table by Victor Wilkins for G Plan (UK), 1960s.

    Both the table and chairs feature a timeless design and beautiful teak wood. The table has an oval shape and can extend to an eight-seater oval table and features a vibrant teak wood grain and solid Afromosia & teak legs. The top slides apart to allow the addition of the folding butterfly leaf to seat 8.  The 6 matching G Plan chairs have a  sophisticated design featuring their original solid teak wood frame with curved teak back supports and round seats upholstered in black leatherette. Stamped. 

     

    G-Plan was a pioneering range of furniture in the United Kingdom, produced by E Gomme Ltd of High Wycombe.

    Why vintage G Plan should be on your radar:

    For furniture connoisseurs, G Plan is a household name. A rival to Ercol as a leading British 20th century brand – both founders Gomme and Ercolani were in fact close friends and professional peers – G Plan has produced some of the most recognisable furniture models over the last fifty years. Even if you do not know it yet, it is worth putting G Plan on your radar! An unchanging presence in many British households, G Plan blends very well with design across most eras. The timeless, simple contours of G Plan make it feasible for use in interiors both as statement design pieces and as stylish backdrop furniture to accentuate other leading features. The wood typically used in G Plan is teak, known for its rich depth of colour and practicality for everyday use.

    As with mostly all Mid-Century pieces, it is a good combination of solid wood and a high-quality wood veneer.
