About the Item

The Post Table illustrates the idea of eliminating anything extra to solely focus on the essential. A classic design expressed with modern minimalism, the table is made from solid oak, featuring loads of legroom in the wide space between the legs on either end. The table top is available in three lengths, supported by the same cylindrical legs as the Post Chair. Simplicity imbued with a sense of beauty is at the core of the Post Collection from Cecilie Manz. The name is a nod to the former home of the Royal Mail, renovated into our flagship showroom in Copenhagen. Clean, uncluttered lines are the signature traits of the Post Chair, boasting a solid wood frame that reflects our heritage of wood craftsmanship and appreciation for authentic materials. Like the chairs, the Post Table's minimalist design makes it suitable for dining or meetings in corporate, private or hospitality settings. For designer Cecilie Manz, her design process starts with examining the purpose of a piece of furniture. By stripping the concept down to only what's necessary, the form that emerges from the function is pure and purposeful. Fredericia produces high quality, architect-designed furniture that is made to last. Many of their pieces are renowned for being handed down from generation to generation. Striving to deliver the modern originals of tomorrow, Fredericia’s designs boast clean lines, fine craftsmanship and built-in viability.

Fredericia

Since the early 20th century, Fredericia has manufactured alluring and sophisticated Scandinavian furniture produced with the highest standards of quality in mind. The Danish brand collaborates with today’s top design talent and over time partnered with celebrated mid-century modernists such as Hans Wegner, Arne Vodder, Jens Risom — a leading figure in Scandinavian design and Knoll’s first designer — and Nanna Ditzel, whose Hanging Egg chair for Sika was a favorite for flashy fashion shoots of the 1960s.

Fredericia was founded in 1911 by N.P. Ravnsø as the Fredericia Chair Factory. In 1930, with the idea of creating a range of durable furniture made in the traditional styles of the era, Fredericia secured a license to manufacture pieces for German company Thonet.

In 1955 Danish businessman Andreas Graversen acquired Fredericia. Graversen had previously established what would become a long-lived partnership with notable furniture designer Børge Mogensen, a former teaching assistant to pioneering architect and designer Kaare Klint. Graversen sought to introduce modern flourishes to traditional Scandinavian furniture design at Fredericia — and owing to his business savvy and vision, coupled with Mogensen's artistic sensibilities and deep understanding of organic materials, the company successfully debuted various furnishings designed in the Scandinavian modern style that are still coveted today.

Fredericia brought Mogensen's iconic Spanish chair to market in 1958. With its solid European oak frame, wide armrests and suspended saddle leather seat and backrest, this signature piece solidified Fredericia's standing in Denmark — and around the world — as a premier furniture company. Mogensen designed many renowned pieces during his career at Fredericia, including the practical, rustic Hunting chair.

After Mogensen's death in 1972, Fredericia continued to flourish as a manufacturer. The company continues to work with legendary designers — witness its impossibly innovative Stingray rocking chair, designed by Thomas Pedersen, for example — and in 2020 acquired the Erik Jørgensen furniture company. Fredericia is now owned by Graversen's son, Thomas Graversen.
