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.
