The Skovby #33, also known as the SM33 dining table, is a round expandable table with extension leaves stored inside its pedestal base. Turn the mechanism beneath the top, the three tabletop sections move outward together, and light pressure allows the concealed leaves to unfold. Skovby lists a 48-inch closed diameter, a 58-inch expanded size, and seating for six to nine.
See the transformation
A round table—until you need more room.
In this 2 Danes showroom demonstration, the 48-inch round table opens to 58 inches and reveals three extension leaves stored inside the base.
Once expanded, the top takes on a distinctive softly triangular shape. That gives the table a different look while creating more space around the perimeter for family and guests.
- The table remains compact for everyday use.
- The extension leaves stay with the table instead of in storage.
- Skovby lists seating for six to nine, depending on chair size and spacing.
- Current wood and nano-laminate options should be confirmed with 2 Danes.
Watch the table move from a 48-inch round top to its 58-inch expanded form.
One table, two useful sizes
Compact when it is just you. Ready when people come over.
The #33 keeps a true round footprint when closed, then adds ten inches of overall width when expanded.
How the Skovby #33 expands
The leaves do not come from a closet. They come from the table.
The synchronized mechanism is the reason this table belongs in the “You Have to See What It Does” collection.
Turn the mechanism
Use the turntable beneath the tabletop to begin the extension sequence.
The top opens together
Three tabletop sections move outward synchronously to create space in the center.
The hidden leaves unfold
Light pressure lets the concealed extension leaves rise and open from inside the base.
Store them again
Reverse the process when dinner is over, and the leaves return to their built-in storage position.
Not just beautiful — functional
Why the Skovby #33 works in real dining rooms
No separate leaf storage
The extension leaves remain inside the pedestal, so you do not need to find room for them elsewhere.
A compact everyday footprint
At 48 inches round, the table can work in dining spaces that do not need a large surface every day.
More flexibility for guests
Skovby lists the table for six to nine seats. Actual comfort depends on chair width and spacing.
One central pedestal
The pedestal design keeps the outside edge free from four corner legs that can dictate chair placement.
Finish and surface choices
Wood—or an alternative for a very active table.
The current 2 Danes product page notes a variety of wood finishes. The showroom video also references a nano-laminate top option.
Wood finishes
See the grain, color, and finish under real light. A screen cannot show how a wood tone will relate to your flooring, cabinets, or chairs.
Nano-laminate option
An option worth discussing for an active household or everyday dining. Ask which current colors and combinations are available.
Finish availability, pricing, and order options can change. Ask the 2 Danes team for current details.
More ways to picture it
These added photos help show how the table can live in different rooms, finishes, and everyday settings—from a bright dining nook to a darker, more tailored space.
Warm wood in a light-filled room
A good look at the table in its everyday round form with wood chairs and a brighter dining setting.
Darker finish with upholstered seating

Compact-space inspiration
A helpful lifestyle example for smaller spaces, showing how the table can still feel useful and inviting without overwhelming the room.
Who should see this table?
A strong fit when your room and guest list both change.
You want a smaller round table most days, but more places when family or friends arrive.
You do not want a large table dominating the room when the extra surface is not needed.
You like expandable furniture, but not carrying and storing loose extension pieces.
