About the Item
This rare side or console table, model 935, designed by Axel Larsson and produced by Bodafors in Sweden during the 1930s, represents a key example of early Swedish functionalist design. The table is characterized by its original white-painted wooden surfaces, which contrast with the sleek chromed steel rods supporting the structure. This combination of painted wood and metal not only highlights the simplicity and utility central to the functionalist movement but also reflects the Scandinavian modern aesthetic, focusing on clean lines and practical design.
The table’s design includes elongated, rounded rectangular shelves that serve as refined yet functional surfaces for storage or display. The streamlined form and subtle curves of the shelves are a testament to Larsson’s skill in creating elegant and timeless furniture pieces. The chromed steel rods are a significant design feature, adding a sense of lightness and contrast to the wooden surfaces, while also providing sturdy support to the overall structure.
Axel Larsson was a prominent Swedish designer known for his innovative contributions to furniture design during the early-to-mid 20th century. His work with Bodafors Möbelfabrik, one of Sweden’s leading furniture manufacturers, helped shape the aesthetic and functionality of Swedish modern furniture. Larsson’s designs often incorporated elements of functionalism, a design movement that emphasized simplicity, utility, and the honest use of materials. Bodafors was known for its high-quality craftsmanship and industrial efficiency, and Larsson’s pieces epitomized this balance between artistry and practicality.
This particular side table remains in its original condition, with an authentic patina that adds character and history to the piece. The table’s design continues to resonate today, embodying the elegance and timeless appeal of Swedish modernism.
