Description
Bruno Mathsson Annika Coffee table Beech and rosewood veneer Firma Karl Mathsson, Värnamo, Sweden Date of creation: 1936 H41.8 D65 cm Bears two labels bearing the name Bruno Mathsson, one of which states ‘Firma Karl Mathsson, Värnamo, Sweden’, as well as a printed mark reading ‘Bruno Mathsson Design / Made in Sweden’ Signs of wear; variations in colour on the tabletop Designed in 1936, the year Bruno Mathsson presented his first pieces of furniture at the Röhsska Museum in Gothenburg, the Annika table is one of his seminal designs. Three curved beech legs support a circular top; their curve extends beneath the top, so that structure and silhouette form a single whole. This principle of laminated and curved wood, which Mathsson also employed for his chairs, links his work to the research of Alvar Aalto during the same period. The successive labels bear witness to a continuous production run by the family workshop.
