Designed by Peter Hvidt and Orla Molgaard-Nielsen, the table sits atop hexagonal tapered legs and features impossibly smooth curves at the narrow ends. The sloped rims, which rise 1.5 inches above the surface, melt into the solid teak edge banding that runs the perimeter of the table.

At nearly six feet in length, it is a statement piece that manages to remain understated. A perfect embodiment of "Japandi" aesthetic, crafted three quarters of a century before the term came into fashion.

Manufactured by Axel Albeck in Denmark c. 1950, this work of art was fully refinished in Los Angeles in 2024. less
