Oregon pine frame with two white enameled metal plates inlay. This top is supported by four cylindrical metal legs, finished in chrome, which terminate in wooden sabots that echo the material of the frame. The combination of the warm wood tones, the crisp white surface, and the reflective metal legs creates a balanced and visually engaging composition. The table's dimensions and form are characteristic of Nurmesniemi's functional yet elegant approach to furniture design.
