About the Item
This charming set of nesting tables were designed by Kurt Ostervig for Jason Mobler. Dating from the 1960s, this set of tables is an iconic piece of mid-century modern history.
Two of the tables bear a whimsical 'guitar pick' shape, the rounded triangular form being a common sight in 1960s furniture designs. The largest table is more traditionally rectangular, but slightly skewed to draw the eye. Together, the nesting tables make a charming arrangement. The alternating sizes allow for them to be set up for a number of uses, or easily put aside once they are not needed.
These tables have been crafted from solid teak wood, an organic material known for its warm and comforting tone and attractive wood grain that is pleasing to the eye. These tables have been branded to the undersides.
The measurements shown are for the largest table of the set. These tables are sold together, and not separately.

Kurt Østervig
Kurt Ejvind Østervig was born in 1912 in Odense, Denmark. He was originally trained and worked as a shipbuilding engineer. However, by the 1930s Østervig shifted to furniture design because of his passion for woodworking.
Østervig's career as a furniture designer began at E. Knudsen’s architectural design studio in Odense. In 1947, Østervig opened his first own studio as a freelance furniture designer, with a focus on modern design. In the following decades, he worked with many of the leading Scandinavian furniture producers of the period.
Østervig was exceptionally versatile, designing furniture for hotels, cinemas, and won numerous design competitions during his career. He won awards at the Milan Triennale in 1953 and 1960. In the 1960s, one of Østervig’s designs was selected for an exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.
Østervig had a flair for the dramatic, infusing his furnishings with unique elements that stood out. From elegant, organic to coarse and purely functional furniture, his versatility earned him recognition.
