Finn Juhl designed the table for his and Niels Vodder's stand at the Cabinetmakers' Guild Exhibition at the Danish Museum of Art & Design in 1948.
In its closed form, The Art Collector's Table presents itself with a simple, graphical expression, but it contains a very special hidden feature. Upon closer inspection, the richness in detail will unfold before your eyes; The split tabletop can be unfolded, revealing a glass case - a treasure chamber for the collector's most valuable objects. While the table is unfolded the leaves still function as two separate tabletops on which one can place a cup of coffee, while admiring the objects on display in the glass cover.
The table is produced in American black walnut, with a solid frame and edges. The tabletop is veneered, so that one can experience the grain of the tree in an unbroken fashion. The glass case is fitted into a separate compartment, which is also made from walnut and is removable. Once the table is unfolded, brass hinges reveal themselves, constituting yet another detail in the design.
