The table's evocative name derives directly from the exhibition's "Hunting Cabin" theme, a conceptual framework that is beautifully reflected in the design's robust, wood-focused character and its celebration of honest, functional craftsmanship .

Mogensen, who is widely celebrated as "the people's designer," created this piece with a mission to make quality, durable furniture accessible to everyone, and the Hunting Table stands as a testament to that enduring philosophy . The table is a masterful composition of excellent woodwork and elegant metal brace bars, achieving a bold and organic whole that has proven remarkably timeless .

The BM1160 Hunting Table is defined by its meticulous construction and the thoughtful interplay of premium materials. It features a solid wood frame and a top crafted from wood veneer with robust solid wood edges, available in beautifully grained oak. The table's stability is elegantly ensured by two diagonal metal brace bars that connect the tabletop to the legs, creating a visually striking structural element available in brass.
