Carl Hansen ML10097 Egyptian Coffee Table
Manufacturer: Carl Hansen
Designer: Mogens Lassen 1940
Mogens Lassen first exhibited this round coffee table, inspired by folding stands found in Tutankhamen's tomb in 1922, at the Copenhagen Cabinetmakers' Guild Exhibition in 1940.
The elegant Egyptian Table easily collapses for storage with the release of a small brass sliding latch beneath the tabletop - a flexible design that exemplifies the functionalism inherent in classic furniture types. For Lassen and his contemporaries, function was paramount. Their approach - strongly influenced by Kaare Klint - often began with the careful study and refinement of long-existing archetypes such as safari-style knockdown chairs, British Windsor and Chippendale chairs, and flexible, practical tables like the Egyptian Table.
These clear, proven furniture types appealed to mid-century design and architecture visionaries, upholding their core belief that intelligent, purposeful design never goes out of style.
The base is crafted from solid wood and features a veneered table top.
Also available in Lacquered finish, please contact one of our team for more information.
