ML10097 EGYPTIAN TABLE Ø85

Mogens Lassen designed the Egyptian table ML10097, inspired by the folding stands found in Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922. The table was first presented at the Cabinetmakers' Guild Exhibition in Copenhagen in 1940.

ML10097 was designed by Mogens Lassen so that it could be easily folded and stored by releasing a small brass sliding latch under the tabletop. It is a flexible coffee table that exemplifies the functionalism present in classic furniture.

For Lassen and his contemporaries, function was paramount. Their approach, heavily influenced by Kaare Klint, often began with the careful study and refinement of long-existing archetypes, such as safari-style chairs, British Windsor and Chippendale chairs, and flexible, practical tables like ML10097.

ML10097 is handcrafted to order in Denmark, and the estimated delivery time is 12-14 weeks.
