Vintage Design
Produced by AB Nordiska Kompaniet, this table belongs to Hjorth’s line of modernist cabin furniture from the 1930s.
Architect and industrial designer Axel Einar Hjorth (1888 – 1959) was one of the leading figures in the Swedish design culture. He created furniture using wood such as oak, pine, rosewood, and birch. It was his application of Art Deco and Modernist aesthetics that make his work an early model of contemporary Swedish design, with its emphasis on minimalism and functionality.
Creating designs for a variety of Swedish furniture manufacturers, including the Stockholm department store Nordiska Kompanient, Hjorth contributed to the burgeoning Swedish design culture and the international recognition it began to receive in the 1920s.
