Scandinavian Mid Century Flower Tables in Teak

€1.800

Pair of Scandinavian Mid-Century Flower Tables in Teak, 1960s Charming pair of Scandinavian mid-century flower tables from the 1960s, crafted in warm teak and fitted with integrated metal planters. The tables combine furniture and greenery in a distinctly Scandinavian way, allowing plants to become an integral part of the interior rather than simply decorative objects placed on top. Each table features a slender teak frame with an elongated rectangular form, incorporating both a practical tabletop and a recessed planter. The different levels create an appealing architectural composition, while the open construction and elegantly tapered legs give the pieces a light and refined appearance. The rich tone and natural grain of the teak provide warmth and contrast beautifully with the metal planters. The planters are removable, making them easier to fill and maintain while also allowing the tables to be adapted for other decorative uses. Flower tables became particularly popular in Scandinavian interiors during the mid-century period, reflecting the era's interest in bringing nature and natural materials into the modern home. Their combination of greenery, furniture and sculptural form makes them especially characteristic of 1950s and 1960s interior design. Finding two matching examples also offers particularly attractive possibilities for placement. They can be positioned together to create a larger composition, used separately on either side of a room, or placed beneath windows where their low proportions make them ideal for displaying plants. Beyond their original function, the tables can also be used as side tables or sculptural display pieces for books, ceramics and other objects, making them highly versatile in a contemporary interior. Very good original vintage condition with minor signs of age and use consistent with their age. A few rust spots inside the metal planter.
