Hans C. Andersen tripod table in teak Artex Denmark 1960

Rare and sculptural tripod side table designed by Hans C. Andersen and produced by Artex in Denmark during the 1960s. Crafted in teak, the table features a circular top with a raised wooden rim surrounding a contrasting black surface. The warm tone and natural grain of the teak create a strong yet understated contrast with the dark tabletop. A slender central column flows into a beautifully shaped three-legged base, giving the table its distinctive sculptural character. The carefully tapered legs and compact proportions create a light, balanced appearance while providing a stable construction. Organic shaping, refined joinery and the combination of functional simplicity with sculptural detailing make this a particularly rare and characterful example of Danish modern design. Marked underneath the tabletop “Designed by Hans C. Andersen.”
