Description
Hans Olsen for Frem Røjle Danish Modern Dining Set in Teak & Afromosia, 1950s

6 Chairs + Butterfly-Leaf Table

A study in elegance and ingenuity, this Danish Modern dining set by Hans Olsen for Frem Røjle is one of the most beloved examples of mid-century space-saving design. Crafted in the 1950s from warm teak and richly toned Afromosia (African teak), the round dining table conceals a built-in butterfly leaf that unfolds effortlessly, extending the table to welcome additional guests — no extra storage required.

The iconic sculpted dining chairs are designed to nest perfectly beneath the curved apron of the table, creating a clean, cohesive silhouette when not in use. This integrated table-and-chair concept was Olsen’s breakthrough contribution to small-space living and remains highly coveted by collectors and design enthusiasts.

Every piece in this set has been carefully and professionally refinished. The chairs have been newly upholstered in luxurious black Italian full-grain leather — supple, breathable, and built to age beautifully. The result is a dining set that feels both timeless and freshly restored for contemporary living.

Why We Love It
• Elegant Danish craftsmanship and sculptural chair frames
• Space-saving nesting design that keeps dining areas visually calm
• Built-in butterfly leaf for seamless hosting
• Fully refinished with new luxury leather upholstery
• A true collector’s set that gracefully blends practicality and form
