Description
A Danish Modern dining table by the well known Danish manufacturer J.L Møller. Design by N.Ø Møller. Teak with black capped feet. . The table having a rectangular top with extending leaves underneath. Fitted frieze below, all raised on tapering supports.
(Measures approx. 73cm x 130cm x 90cm not extended.)
The chairs are Elliot's Of Newbury - EON / E.O.N. - a set of four retro 20th century designer teak wood dining chairs. Each chair having slender padded curved backrests with teak backs. Each with tan vinyl upholstery to the back and seat rest. All raised on tapering supports. (Each chair measures approx. 81cm x 49cm x 47cm.)
els Møller was born in 1920 in Århus, Denmark. After completing an apprenticeship in cabinetmaking in 1939, he enrolled at the Århus School of Design for further studies. In 1944 he opened his own furniture company, JL Møllers Møbelfabrik, in a small workshop in his hometown. By 1952 the company had begun exports to Germany and the US. With increased production, they found themselves in need of more space and opened a larger facility just outside of Århus in Højbjerg. By 1974 they were exporting to Japan where their minimalist designs proved extremely popular. Japan remains one of the company’s biggest markets today. (Design Within Reach)
Soon after setting up shop Møller was recognized for his “consistent excellence in quality and workmanship.” (Pamono) His son Jørgen elaborated in an interview about his father: “My father never compromised on anything…When he designed a chair, he would find the materials and then design the furniture. Each design took him five years to complete.” (Design Within Reach)
Such dedication meant that Møller produced far fewer designs than his contemporaries, but the relative scarcity of his pieces makes them even more valued.
The emphasis on old craft traditions endures at JL Møllers. Even today the company avoids the use of assembly lines and, as far as possible, modern technology. An outline of their processes shows the attention to detail in their furniture production:
Each chair is handcrafted, with individual employees specializing in particular processes.
Tenons, mortices, and dowels are all glued by hand. While other components are dried down to 8% humidity, dowels are dried down to 5%. As a result, when the dowel contacts the glue, “it expands and is immovably fixed in position.”
Believing that polishing machines “treat all wood alike,” the company ensures that all chairs are polished by hand. With each chair getting individual attention, the best attributes of the wood can be brought out.
After being thoroughly inspected, chairs are packed fully assembled, not as “knock-down furniture in a box.” The workmanship is so sound, the company states on its website that it is “literally impossible to pull a Møller chair apart.”
Condition report:
There is some sun fading to the fronts of the vinyl leather seats. This cannot be seen when pushed into the table. The table top has been refinished with Osmo Wax

Cancellations and Returns
Last updated: 17th October 2024
Our Terms of sale were designed to treat both Customers and Vendors (including Professional Vendors and Non-Professional Vendors (as defined in the Site Terms)) fairly, in order to make the shopping/selling experience with Vinterior just as exceptional as the items.
To protect our Customers from disappointment or the unexpected, we strongly encourage them to closely inspect item photos, descriptions, and details before purchasing anything on the Site, and then again upon delivery or pickup.
If the Customer is unsure about an item's condition, dimensions, quantity, or description, they can send their questions to the item's Vendor by clicking on Ask the seller on the listing page of the Site.
Customers shall receive the same level of consumer protection on purchases irrespective of whether they are buying from a Professional Vendor or Non-Professional Vendor.
Should you have any questions regarding your transaction, please contact the Vendor in the first instance.
Can I cancel an order?
If a Customer changes their mind or decides for any other reason not to purchase the Goods before they have been dispatched, they can cancel the order on the Site and receive a refund.
The right to cancel does not apply to the following types of goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke, or made-to-order according to the customer's specific requirements. If in doubt, the Customer can contact the Vendor via the Site.
If the Customer cancels an order after an item has already been marked as dispatched for delivery, the delivery costs are non-refundable.
To cancel the order, the Customer must follow the cancellation procedure on the Site by clicking on Create Cancellation on the order page.
Can I return an item?
At Vinterior, we understand that sometimes a piece may not be the perfect fit once it's in your home. That's why we offer a 14-day return policy, allowing you to return any item within 14 days from the date of delivery for any reason.
In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund or to have the issue fixed when possible.
Please note that certain items are non-refundable, including those that are personalised, bespoke, or made-to-order according to your specific requirements.
Types of returns and responsibilities
Change of mind return
Consumers can return the goods due to a change of mind. Once a return is requested, the buyer is in charge of shipping the goods back to the seller and should organise it as soon as possible. Shipment costs to and from buyers are non-refundable.
Item not fit for purpose
Acting under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, customers may return faulty Goods that are damaged or the listing on the Site is materially inaccurate, misleading, or misrepresents the Goods. In these cases, the Customer must provide photographic evidence to Vinterior and the Vendor or reject the delivery on arrival.
Damage in transit
Vinterior must be informed of any damage in transit. If Proovia delivered the items, Vinterior will then raise an insurance claim on behalf of the Vendor with the delivery company. If the seller organised a delivery, they would be asked to raise a claim with their courier. Once the claim is resolved and any relevant decision regarding the insurance has been made, any applicable refunds will be processed.
How to request a return
To initiate a return the customer needs to log in to their Vinterior account and click Create a return on the order page. In the return request, the reason for the return must be included along with photos of any damage of the Goods, if faulty.
How you will be refunded?
Once the item is returned to the Vendor in the same condition, the Vendor will confirm receipt of the item, and Vinterior will refund the original payment method.
If an item is returned to the seller damaged or in an unsuitable condition, Vinterior will not be able to process the refund, and the seller may have to send it back (and ask you to cover the delivery costs). All items are inspected on return.
What can't be returned?
As with cancellations, the right to return an item does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the Customer's specific requirements.
Please note that vintage items are not sold as new and are likely to show signs of wear and tear. This is not sufficient grounds for a refund.
Vendors may refuse a return of an item if the Customer has altered it in any way.
Neither Vinterior nor the Vendors are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
