Introducing: The Elliptical Table by Charles Eames. This low coffee table with its elliptical, elegant shape was soon nicknamed the"Surfboard Table" due to its surfboard-like form. With its two chrome-plated bases, the table formally refers to Charles Eames ' frequently varied theme of bent steel wires welded together to form a statically stable construction. The elliptical table later became a classic in Bauhaus history and still provides absolute comfort and style in many living rooms today.
