The story behind the Arne Jacobsen Swan Table

In 1958,Jacobsen created the Radisson SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen,one of the most famous 20th century buildings in the Danish capital. He also designed a large part of the furniture inside the hotel,including the chairs,lighting and cutlery. His iconic Egg and Swan Chairs are part of this classic collection. Jacobsen designed his Swan Table series ten years later,as an accompaniment to the Egg and Swan chair family. It was used in the hotel lobby. The series included super-elliptical,square and rectangular table tops. But it is the circular A222 version that has proved the most popular,possibly because its curves perfectly reflect the soft styling of the Egg and Swan chair designs.
