About the Item

A truly exceptional Danish Mid-Century coffee table, defined by its spectacular use of Brazilian Rosewood (Dalbergia nigra) – one of the most coveted and historically significant timbers in modern design history. Originating from Denmark circa the 1960s, this piece represents a confluence of rare material and masterful craftsmanship. The Allure of Brazilian Rosewood Masterful Veneering: What elevates this table to a collector's item is the breathtaking expanse of its square top, constructed using a stunning book-matched Brazilian Rosewood veneer. This meticulous technique opens a single slice of wood like a book to create a perfectly symmetrical, mirror-image pattern across the surface, showcasing the legendary grain at its absolute dramatic peak. Renowned for its deep colour variation – ranging from rich chocolate and violet hues to striking black ink lines (spiderwebbing) – this timber is extraordinarily rare. Heavily restricted and CITES-listed since 1992 due to over-harvesting, vintage pieces like this, crafted during its heyday, are increasingly scarce and highly prized. The professionally restored surface reveals the wood's inherent luminosity. In natural light, the intricate, book-matched grain patterns seem to glow with an inner fire, shifting and revealing complex layers of colour and depth that synthetic finishes simply cannot replicate. This dynamic interaction with light is a hallmark of premium, old-growth Brazilian Rosewood handled with artisanal care. Elevated on elegant, solid rosewood tapered legs, the table embodies the sophisticated minimalism and unwavering commitment to quality that defines the best of Danish Modern design. The clean lines serve to emphasise the sheer beauty of the timber itself. Professionally restored to an excellent standard, this substantial coffee table is more than just furniture; it is a piece of design history, showcasing a protected and revered material at its finest. Ready to be the commanding centrepiece of a discerning interior.
