About the Item

Svend Langkilde for Illums Bolighus Rosewood & Brass Butler’s Tray Table This exceptional butler’s tray table is a masterpiece of Danish Cabinetmaking, attributed to Svend Langkilde and originally retailed by the prestigious Illums Bolighus in Copenhagen. Combining versatility with the opulent materiality of old-growth rosewood, this piece represents the height of mid-century functional luxury. Full Product Description This versatile two-piece design consists of a removable serving tray and a collapsible or stationary X-frame base, allowing it to transition seamlessly from a cocktail table to a standalone serving surface. Materiality: The table is meticulously crafted from solid "old-growth" Rosewood, characterized by its dense, dark grain and deep reddish-brown hues. The solid rosewood legs and the articulating "wings" of the tray showcase the superior timber quality typical of mid-1950s Danish production. Mechanism & Detail: The tray features four hinged sides that fold upward for easier transport. These are secured by heavy-gauge solid brass hinges, which provide both structural integrity and a sophisticated visual accent. Functional Design: The underside of the tray is fitted with original rubber stoppers, allowing it to be safely placed on a credenza or dining table without risk of surface damage. Authentication: The piece retains the original Illums Bolighus manufacturer/retailer tag attached to the legs, confirming its provenance from Denmark’s most elite design house. Condition: Professionally restored to excellent condition, highlighting the vibrant wood grain while preserving the authentic vintage character of the brass hardware.
