Severin Hansen rosewood coffee table, for Haslev Møbelsnedkeri, Denmark, 1960s
the rectangular rosewood top with Royal Copenhagen tile inset on square-section tapering legs, manufacturer's paper label, 60cm high, 152cm wide, 74cm deep
Notes
The design simplicity and angular silhouette of this table is typical of Hansen's mid century styling where the miter joints allow for a seamless transition between leg and apron.
While little is known about Severin Hansen's life, his designs exhibit his exceptional craftsmanship and refined use of materials, particularly his use of rosewood.
