In the store: Inventive table design

Just when you thought no one could come up with a better table, enter some very beautiful and space-saving sets by Illum Wikkelso and Poul Norreklit, respectively.

Wikkelso designed this rosewood set of three tables for Silkeborg. They fold to fit inside a beautiful storage table.

Poul Norreklit designed the Magic Cube. Rather than store his tables inside a larger piece, the solid-looking cube is formed by fitting six teak and chrome tables together. We have a pair of these in the store, and they are a perfect size for end tables.
