  • An early and significant example from Axel Einar Hjorth’s Utö series, this table reflects the designer’s exploration of reduced form and material honesty during the early 1930s. Crafted in stained pine, the piece is defined by its softly rounded, bowl-like tabletop and a cylindrical pedestal base, both shaped with an economy of gesture that emphasises structure over ornament

    The absence of a defined apron allows the form to read as a continuous volume, lending the table a quiet sculptural presence. The surface retains its original finish, bearing subtle variations in tone and wear that speak to age and use. Documented in Axel Einar Hjorth: Möbelformgivare, the piece stands as a restrained expression of Scandinavian modernism at its most elemental
