Presenting the Mid Century McIntosh extension table, a paragon of exquisite craftsmanship and timeless design. Exuding the elegance of Scandinavian aesthetics, this teak dining table gracefully extends to host intimate gatherings of up to six, blending functionality with an artisanal charm that evokes an era of sophisticated dining. Each piece narrates a legacy of McIntosh’s storied past, enveloping your space in a warm, nostalgic embrace.

 

Though little information regarding McIntosh’s early designs is available, it is known that the factory—like many British enterprises—joined the war effort during the First World War. With most workers (including the founder’s grandson, Henry) called up to enlist, the McIntosh factory began manufacturing airplane wings and other parts for the duration of the war. During this time, Alexander Henry’s son Thomas Wishart McIntosh (1861–1933), headed the family business from London, where McIntosh had established an office.

Despite an aesthetic that could be mistaken as Danish modern, the company marketed itself, both at home and abroad, as a proud Scottish firm that utilized traditional processes and that employed local, highly-skilled cabinetmakers. The McIntosh label, which survives on many 1950s and 1960s pieces, shows the Scottish thistle and crown, a long-time symbol of Scotland. From 1948 until 1983, Tom Robertson worked as head designer for the firm; creating his most notable design, the teak Dunvegan sideboard (1960s) known for its sculpted handles.

Structurally sound and in nice, unrestored, original condition with some signs of use.
