The Nyhavn Dining Table | Finn Juhl | 1953
Finn Juhl's signature approach to visual lightness extends seamlessly to the Nyhavn Dining Table, a natural evolution of his original desk design. His focus on practicality and attention to detail is evident in the table’s refined proportions and innovative construction. The table is easy to care for, ages gracefully and can be customized in numerous ways. When not in use, the extension leaves hang vertically at the ends of the table. The tabletop can be ordered in either teak, oak, walnut, Oregon pine, or linoleum in the colors 'black' or 'mushroom'.

A Table with Character
Known for adding visual lightness to his designs, the Nyhavn Dining Table is no exception. Finn Juhl was inspired by the simplistic designs of his American counterparts, in particular, Charles Eames. However, his sense of functionality and detail is what adds real character to this piece.
The orange and blue colors are characteristic of Finn Juhl’s designs and derive from his inspiration from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s wheel of warm and cold colors.
The Nyhavn Dining Table can also be seen as Finn Juhl’s response to the criticism of his inspiration with the free sculptural art and its exclusivity.
