Story
For his own use
Mogensen designed the table in 1961 to meet his own furniture needs. The Asserbo Series page places the series in his private holiday home, where it was first produced in pine; Carl Hansen & Søn now reissues it in eucalyptus.
Shaker cues
The manufacturer says the table's stringency alludes to the Shaker style, with gently rounded lines marked by visible brushed brass screws.
