Description

Finn Juhl designed the table for his and Niels Vodder’s stand at the 1948 Cabinetmakers’ Guild Exhibition at the Danish Museum of Art & Design, which they named An Art Collector’s Study. The table’s distinctive design features a split tabletop that unfolds to reveal a glass case, evoking the feeling of a treasure chamber. This unique function, combined with the exhibition’s theme, led to its name—the Art Collector’s Table. The table is produced in walnut, with a solid frame and edges. The tabletop is veneered, so that one can experience the grain of the tree in an unbroken fashion. The glass case is fitted into a separate compartment, which is also made from walnut and is removable.

Table opens to 48.8 inches.
