Information

This rare pair of side tables, model 600, designed by Knud Joos and produced by Jason Møbler in Denmark during the 1950s, exemplifies the minimalist aesthetic central to mid-century Scandinavian modern design. The tables feature a square tabletop crafted from rosewood, distinguished by a striking natural grain pattern with deep, warm brown tones. The surface is smoothly polished, presenting sharp, clean edges that emphasize the material’s inherent beauty.

Supporting the tabletop is a slender steel frame with a brushed finish, which provides structural solidity while maintaining a lightweight and visually unobtrusive appearance. The contrast between the rich, organic texture of the rosewood and the cool industrial quality of the steel frame reflects a defining characteristic of Danish modern furniture from this era.

The tables are in well-preserved condition, showing only minor wear consistent with age and use. The quality of materials and craftsmanship highlights the expertise typical of Jason Møbler’s production and Knud Joos’s focus on simplicity combined with refined materiality.

Each table measures 42 cm in width, depth, and height (16.5 x 16.5 x 16.5 inches), making them compact and versatile for various uses such as side tables, nightstands, or components within a modular furniture setting. The precise detailing and thoughtful material combination make these pieces distinctive representatives of Danish modernism in the mid-20th century.
