Light and elegant, this table with its handy removable tray top, lends itself to several purposes and environments. Defined by a slender steel frame, topped with a walnut tabletop, encasing a high gloss laminate surface, the unification of different materials and textures form a stylish, durable design. Additionally, the tray can be turned, with one side in black and the other in white laminate, creating a versatile, practical design that can grow with an interior space over time. Ideal for positioning next to a lounge chair or sofa, the House of Finn Juhl Tray Table is a timeless piece.
Finn Juhl was born on the 30th January 1912 in Frederiksberg, Denmark.
Although trained in architecture, it was his modern furniture designs that made him an international name. His first pieces of furniture were designed for his own apartment and were manufactured by the young Danish carpenter, Niels Vodder.
In 1946 Juhl got his first major interior assignment at Bing and Grøndahl’s store at Amagertorv in Copenhagen. This later became one of his main works and was awarded with the Eckersberg Medal in 1947. Soon after, he was given the opportunity to help furnish the new headquarters of the United Nations in NY - something which established his name with the American audience.
He is most famous today for his iconic furniture designs including The Chieftan Chair and The 108 Chair which are now produced by the House of Finn Juhl.
