As far as Kaare Klint was concerned, the term coffee tables did not exist. Instead, he drew various small tables with space for pipe tobacco, cigars and cigarettes, ashtrays and matches. He realized, however, that space for cups and glasses was needed, too. All the resulting solutions were variations on the same theme - a tabletop and a square shelf on a square base. Kaare Klint designed this round coffee table in 1943.

The coffee table is available in mahogany, European cherry, oak, and ash, and comes in two different sizes.

Kaare Klint

Regarded as the godfather of modern Danish design, Kaare Klint (1888-1954) made a name for himself as a furniture designer in the early 1900s. He was responsible for such design icons as the world-renowned Safari Chair and the Faaborg Chair, and for the overall design of the Danish Pavilion at the 1929 Barcelona International Exposition
