Product description
TOP-DESIGNCLASSIX™ "Design classics, design and vintage furniture as new"
For sale is a luxurious, original Tranekaer mosaic coffee table in mint condition.
OBJECT:
"Town by the Water" coffee table
Finish: Padouk
STYLE:
Mid - Century / Danish
DESCRIPTION:
The table top of a Tranekaer table is assembled from 3864 individual pieces of solid wood standing on edge, using numerous different types of precious wood. Each top has its own design and character. The elaborate surface treatment according to precisely defined specifications gives the surface a uniquely beautiful, matt silky sheen. A special oil treatment gives the top good resistance to daily wear and tear.
The choice of wood species for the legs and frames is precisely matched to the color scheme of the table tops. Each piece of furniture is provided with a brass plate bearing the series and number as well as the name of the architect and designer responsible for the artistic design.
Anyone with a little knowledge of carpentry or woodworking can imagine how time-consuming and meticulous the work must be to produce a table of this quality! And not just for the table top, but also for the connection between the table legs and the frames, for example. A special brass screw connection was constructed here, the cube head of which was fitted into the table leg by hand as a design element, visible from the outside.
