About the Item
A rare and highly desirable table designed by Robin Day for Hille Of London in the 1950s, featuring an original blue laminated top—an uncommon example of its kind and visually striking example of British mid-century modern design.
The table showcases Day’s hallmark balance of functional clarity and understated elegance, with a clean-lined silhouette and thoughtful proportions. The vibrant blue laminate surface provides a bold yet refined contrast to the minimalist base, making it equally suitable as a dining table or workspace
This example retains its original Hille maker’s mark on the underside, confirming authenticity and adding to its collectability. Robin Day’s furniture for Hille is increasingly sought after, and tables with coloured laminate tops are particularly rare compared to standard wood or neutral finishes.
A strong, architectural piece that works beautifully in both residential and creative or commercial environments.
