Dyrlund Used: Vintage Furniture from Denmark

Dyrlund was founded in 1960 in Skovlunde (Denmark) by Hans Dyrlund Petersen and is one of the defining Danish furniture makers of the mid-century and Pop eras. The company is known for its distinctive round dining tables, swivel-base stools and pared-back sculptural furniture rooted in a tradition of precise solid-wood joinery.

The best-known Dyrlund classics are the round dining tables with their distinctive extendable star-shaped central mechanism (the “Flip-Flap table”), produced in several woods (teak, rosewood, mahogany, smoked oak) and counted for decades among the internationally sought-after Danish dining-table classics. Alongside these are the upholstered lounge benches and armchairs by Kai Lyngfeldt Larsen, the dining chairs in curved plywood construction and the sideboards in solid-wood joinery. Dyrlund produced exclusively in its own workshop in Skovlunde and exported internationally (above all to Germany, the Netherlands and the USA). Materials include solid Danish and tropical woods (teak, rosewood, oak), precisely executed solid-wood joinery and, in seating, high-quality wool covers and leather upholstery.

On the vintage market, original Dyrlund editions from the 1960s and 70s are especially sought after, above all the round Flip-Flap tables in rosewood or teak with their original joinery patina. When you examine a piece, look for the branded Dyrlund mark on the underside of the table base or the case (with model name and date), the characteristic precise solid-wood joinery and an intact wood patina free of aggressive staining or refinishing.

Frequently asked questions and answers

Who is Dyrlund?

A Danish furniture maker, known since 1960 for high-quality teak and rosewood work: dining tables, sideboards and boardroom furniture in classic Danish design.

How do I recognise a genuine Dyrlund piece?

By labels or brand stamps with the logotype, usually on the underside or back panel, and by the fine veneer work with book-matched patterns. We document the markings for each piece.

Why are Dyrlund tables so sought after?

Because of the mechanics: many dining tables have clever extensions that turn a compact table into a long board. Add veneer quality that is hardly produced any more today.

How do I care for Dyrlund teak and rosewood?

Wipe with a barely damp cloth, rub dry and oil once or twice a year. Use coasters against water marks and avoid strong sun, and the veneer stays beautiful.

Are these vintage pieces or simply used Dyrlund pieces?

Both terms apply: vintage describes age and design language, used describes the history. How old a piece is and its condition is always stated with the item.

Yes. On the Sell page you describe your piece with photos, we check it and come back with an assessment and the next steps.
