Surfboard

A classic, extraordinarily beautiful, yet unpretentious wooden coffee table, created in the 50s by the acclaimed Danish furniture designer Arne Hovmand-Olsen. The design of the tabletop was inspired by the shape of a surfboard, lending the table an innate lightness that makes it perfect for any modern interior. The coffee table is also available with an elegant solid wood and French rattan shelf, adding an extra dimension to this iconic design, which was referred to from its earliest days as the ‘Surfboard’.
