ABOUT PRODUCTID 19948
The B612 Superellipse extendable table, designed by Piet Hein and Bruno Mathsson for Danish manufacturer Fritz Hansen in the 1960s, embodies the mature phase of Scandinavian modernism. Its superellipse-shaped tabletop, finished in a cool, light grayish-white with a semi-matte surface, features gently rounded edges and a subtle central seam, allowing the length to be extended from 153 to 213 or 273 cm with two leaves. Four slender, polished aluminum legs with a satin sheen, each constructed from thin rods that splay outward, form a lightweight, geometric framework. Metal fittings and the extension mechanism are partially exposed beneath the top, emphasizing the project's functional minimalism. The materials—laminated or lacquered top and metal legs—are in excellent condition following full professional restoration, with no visible signs of wear or patina. Condition: fully, professionally restored, with no signs of use.This table carries a sense of mathematical discipline, echoing Piet Hein’s fascination with geometry. The superellipse—a shape balancing between square and ellipse—reflects a search for harmony between science and aesthetics. The aluminum legs, splaying like a delicate skeleton, elevate the softly contoured top, which gently reflects daylight. The table seems to tell stories of daily conversations and gatherings, a subtle simplicity that never dominates but instead gives space for life and shared moments.The B612 Superellipse can be paired with bentwood or lightly upholstered chairs in neutral tones to emphasize its modernist spirit. It would work well in an open-plan dining area or living room furnished in
