Center/ Coffee Table

History:
This is most probably a special commission made around 1940. Mogens Lassen designed his famous "Egyptienne" coffee table with a similar circular top and carved raised edge around 1939-1940, as well as a very similar single lounge table for Mr Bording, which combined an identical circular top on a four-legged metal frame.

Unique 'Ross' Coffee Table

History:
Finn Juhl designed the furniture for the home of Alf Ross. Only this very table made by cabinetmaker Niels Vodder exists. The black-and-white photo shows Alf Ross and family around the table, with the previous owner is sitting on his lap. The table is part of a series of tables from around 1945–1950 where Finn Juhl most clearly obliterates the distinction between function and artistic expression. He uses different materials, each of which point to their functional purpose, while at the same time transforming it to a sculpture due to their different colours and shapes. The ¨Ross¨ table with the straight lines on the frame, circle motif on the organic top, balancing on the rounded teak “shoes”, is significantly inspired by the Swiss artist Sophie Tauber-Arp and her works and thoughts on balance and movement. It is furniture art in the most literal sense. The recess in the brass plate is presumably, similar to Finn Juhl's table from 1945, intended to accommodate the pewter vase with glass lid (Model A1432) that Björn Trägårdh designed for Firma Svenskt Tenn in 1930.
