About the Item

Rare table by Danish cabinetmaker H. Poulsen was crafted in 1904 and exemplifies the refined ideals of the late Aesthetic and early Arts Crafts movements in Scandinavia. Executed in solid oak and adorned with delicate intarsia in contrasting woods, the piece displays an elegant balance between craftsmanship and artistic expression. The design is characterized by its geometric inlays and harmonious proportions, showcasing the period’s dedication to honest construction and the decorative potential of natural materials. Each detail — from the precisely chamfered edges to the subtle joinery — reflects Poulsen’s mastery as a cabinetmaker and his sensitivity to both structure and ornament. Like its companion cabinet made the same year, this table stands as a testament to the Danish interpretation of the Aesthetic ideal: beauty achieved through integrity of craft and purity of form. The original 1904 receipt accompanies the piece, providing a rare glimpse into its provenance and early history. We also have the original cabinet available.
