Notes
These Danish side tables are an example of fine craftsmanship and clean functional design. Brazilian rosewood, now under CITES trade restrictions was one of the preferred materials used by Danish Mid-Century designers. Called 'rosewood' for to its sweet rose-like scent, it was valued for its dense grain and deep reddish-brown hues.
The Danish Furnituremakers Control sticker certifies that the piece was produced in Denmark to high quality standards.
