Description

The CH004 Nesting Tables were first launched in 1952. Due to their lightness, space-optimized design and classic minimalism, the side tables go well with any interior. The Nesting Tables consist of three different-sized nesting tables that can be used individually or combined. The three tables are graduated so they fit together perfectly and can easily be integrated with other furniture, either as side tables or smaller coffee tables. The Nesting Tables have distinct details such as the round, tapered legs, classic mortise joints and subtle curves on the front and rear struts that add an organic and timeless look.
Nesting tables became popular in the 1950s hand in hand with the growing need for more flexible interiors – a need which is just as relevant today. These nesting table have an air of lightness about them that makes it easy to reorganize the furniture and create smaller zones within a room.
Oak/walnut is a mixed version combined with a table top in walnut and a base in oak.

CH004 was designed by Hans Wegner. Wegner is arguably the most important figure in Danish modern furniture design. Early in his life, Wegner apprenticed under a cabinetmaker and was eventually educated at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. In 1938, he worked on furniture for Arne Jacobsen and Erik Moller’s Aarhus City Hall. By 1943, he opened his own design studio, where he would design some of his most famous works. The peacock chair was designed in 1947 for Johannes Hansen and thanks to innovations from designers such as Eames and Aalto, bent plywood shell chairs by Wegner began in 1948. Both the Wishbone and Round Chair were in introduced in 1949 and have since become two of his best recognized works. Over his career, Wegner designed over 500 different chairs and countless other pieces including tables and cabinets. The attention to joinery, craft, and material have helped to make his name so revered.
