The Drachmann table from Skagerak possesses a solid and elegant impression at the same time. The table is made of high quality wood and suitable for interior and exterior areas. Drachmann embodies classic Scandinavian garden furniture with its classical and nostalgic look.

The table is part of the Drachmann collection from Skagerak. The timeless furniture-classic with the unmistakable cross in its back meanwhile has several decades behind it. The design was coined by Bernt Santesson. The table fulfills the design from the chairs and benches, but it can also be combined with other pieces of furniture without any problems.

The Drachmann table, besides the white lacquered variant, is also available in a teak wood variant. The white lacquered table consists of FSC-certificate gum wood.

The idea of the picturesque, white lacquered pieces of furniture is traceable to the golden Skagens age, as artists like Kroyer, Ancher and Drachmann were inspired by the unique nature and the special light the northern tip of Denmark is known for. The first characteristically white Skagen-furniture pieces that were manufactured by local carpenters are mapped on pictures from that period.

Teak wood is resistant, stabile and easy to be processed. At the same time the wood is marked by a unique content of naturally impregnating oils that make the wood robust towards rot and fungal infestation. This makes it possible to position furniture made of high quality teak wood outsides all over the year without any further treatments but a regular cleaning. Those who want to preserve the woods’ beautiful interplay of colours and desire a darker shade can treat the pieces with oil.

The Drachmann table is also available as 55 cm, 86 cm and 190 cm variants and with a rounder form.
