Notes
'Tarja' is a traditional Finnish feminine name. When Olof Ottelin designed this drinks cart, he chose a common, classic Finnish name for the product line, which was a popular naming convention for Nordic mid-century furniture pieces.
The removable trays and folding frame transform the piece from a drinks trolley into a serving tray, reflecting the Danish emphasis on practical, adaptable furniture for modern living.
