AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

These light (blonde) oak side tables are a beautiful addition to a Japandi, minimalist styled, or Danish-oriented interior. They can be conveniently stacked together to save space. They can also be grouped to serve as, for example, a coffee table.

Origin: Netherlands 1950 - 1970

51 - 46 - 46 cm height 38 cm
39 - 39 - 39 cm height 33 cm
30 - 30 - 30 cm height 28 cm
Weight 12.3 kg

These tables are sought after for their distinctive shape, as most side tables are square or rectangular, while these are triangular. Timelessness and functionality: The design from the 60s/70s is functional and features a sleek, minimalist aesthetic that was popular during the Mid Century Modern (MCM) period. The visible wood grain and the robust finish emphasize the natural state of the material. The natural state of the material underscores MCM but also brutalism applies here. 'Brutalism' in furniture refers to the emphasis on raw, unfinished materials and massive, sculptural forms. The use of solid oak contributes to a heavy and durable appearance. The simple, triangular shape and thick legs highlight the structure of the object itself, which is also characteristic of brutalist designs.

The legs are made from a single piece of wood, each with beautiful nuances of color and shape within the wood itself. An additional nuance is visible in the two layers that make up the top. The tops are made of slats or strips of wood, which you can clearly see when you look at the tops and sides of the tables.

The top table has a longer length in the top. The tables fit underneath each other but can be arranged in many playful ways. They are solid oak tables that can withstand a lot of wear and tear, and have done so over the years. There are some signs of wear, a few deeper scratches and dents, and slight discoloration due to use. Circles are slightly visible on each table. This is more noticeable in the photo than in person. In my opinion, this is discoloration from sunlight on a plant pot or statue that stood on top. Everything around it, including the other tables, has been exposed to sunlight.

The tables will be carefully packed and shipped insured.
