Finn Juhl coffee / side table

This coffee/side table, model 533, was designed by the Danish designer Finn Juhl and produced by France & Daverkosen in Denmark in 1959. It is a prime example of mid-century Scandinavian design, characterized by clean lines, functional form, and a focus on craftsmanship.

The table features a solid teak wood construction, with a sleek and minimalist rectangular tabletop supported by four elegant, tapered legs. The teak wood displays a rich, warm tone with beautiful grain patterns, showcasing the natural beauty of the material. The design is simple but striking, with subtle detailing at the corners of the tabletop and the legs that reflect Juhl’s meticulous attention to proportions and balance. The table’s sturdy construction ensures durability, while the proportions create a light and airy presence.

In terms of condition, the table is in good vintage condition, showing only minor signs of usage that contribute to its character. It has been carefully restored to preserve its integrity while maintaining the original aesthetics. The restoration process has ensured that the table remains functional and beautiful, with the teak wood surface cleaned and refinished to enhance its natural qualities.

Finn Juhl, one of the leading figures in Danish mid-century design, was known for his innovative approach to furniture. His work often emphasized organic shapes, the use of natural materials, and a keen understanding of human ergonomics. The model 533 table reflects these principles, combining practicality with a refined artistic sensibility.
