The table, which the eames couple designed in 1951, owes its name to its oval shape and steel wire base. This table is from 2020.
etr is an abbreviation for “elliptical (e) table (t) on a rod (r) base”. The etr coffee table is an evolution of the ltr table, which was released a year earlier.
just like the ltr, the etr coffee table also has a low base. The table was soon nicknamed the “surfboard table” because the large elliptical shape that sits low to the ground resembles a surfboard.
in the early 1950s, a need arose for furniture that was not made of wood or that looked like it was not made of wood. The etr coffee table is also made of plywood, but due to the hard laminated top plate, the furniture does not look like wood. Originally the table was only available in black.
nowadays a white version is also available. The base of the etr coffee table consists of two low structures made of bent steel wires welded to a chrome finish.
