Description
The Elmer is a low side table with a character all of its own: a broad, softly lobed top, like a cloud seen from above, sitting on a single drum-shaped pedestal. It measures 46cm long, 46cm wide and 40cm tall, and the top overhangs the base on every side, so it reads as a small mushroom of a table rather than a box. The composition is 70% MDF and 30% firwood, finished with a veneer that shows a pronounced, flowing grain in beige, running in bands around the base and across the top.
At 40cm tall it is a low table, a height that sits well beside a lounge chair, a low armchair or the end of a sofa, putting a book or a lamp within easy reach of where you sit. The maker gives a maximum load of 20KG, so it is made for the everyday things a side table holds: a stack of books, a reading lamp, a small sculpture, your phone and glasses. It belongs in a living room, beside a reading chair by the window or in a bedroom next to a low bed. At 3.28KG it is light enough to carry from room to room whenever you rearrange.
MDF is dense and even, which makes it a steady core for a veneer, the thin surface layer that carries the grain. Care is simple: the maker asks only that you wipe it clean with a moist cloth. Small feet sit under the base, lifting it just clear of the floor. The maker's assembly instructions come as a PDF download. For styling, the soft outline of the top looks its best against straight lines, so set it beside a chair with a crisp frame or in front of an open shelf, and let the grain do the work; a pale rug underneath picks up the beige.
