Carl Hansen CH008 Coffee Table

Manufacturer: Carl Hansen

Designer: Hans j Wegner 1954

Hans J Wegner's elegant three-legged coffee table is an icon of good taste. It works equally well with sofas or groups of Wegner easy chairs such as CH07 (Shell) Chair or CH445 (Wing) Chair.

The CH008 coffee table is a fine example of Hans J. Wegner’s preference for simple, clear and interesting solutions.

CH008 consists of a round tabletop on a frame with three detachable, tapered legs. To support the tabletop, and as a link between the top and the legs, the table has a solid triangular frame, the corners of which are cut off at an angle at the edge of the tabletop. The legs are screwed into these surfaces to achieve their slanted outward direction. The rounding of the legs gives the coffee table an elegant and almost floating look.

The simple and elegant CH008 coffee table, crafted from solid wood, works especially well with other well-known pieces by Wegner, particularly his lounge chairs. The table’s solid top with rounded corners is available in 3 different sizes and the legs in three different heights. This gives the customer the possibility of putting the table together according to what best fits one’s existing furniture. With only 3 legs, the coffee table is also well suited for slightly uneven floors.

Please note: Solid wood is a living material that gives and absorbs moisture from its the surroundings. To prevent cracks, please avoid sudden changes in humidity and temperature. Cracks caused by desiccation are not under warranty (a valid claim).
