About this Item
Denmark
A nest of three rosewood Severin Hansen 'Model 163' tables for Haslev Møbelsnedkeri, 1950s, Denmark
with original 'Danish Furniture Manufacturer's Control' label, the tallest 50cm high, 58,5cm wide, 35,5cm deep
(3)
Notes
The design simplicity and angular silhouette of these nesting tables is typical of Hansen's mid-Century styling where the miter joints allow for a seamless transition between leg and apron.
While little is known about Severin Hansen's life, his designs exhibit his exceptional craftsmanship and refined use of materials, particularly his use of rosewood.
