A sculptural Amsterdam School side table with a geometry that's pleasing to the eye. Design, craftsmanship and warmth meet in perfect balance.
Executed in solid oak, the table features a circular top resting on four elegantly stepped legs, connected by a lower round tier supported by cross shaped stretchers. The proportions are thoughtful and architectural, with subtle rhythm in the vertical lines that give the piece its distinctive character. From every angle, the table reveals a different composition, strong yet restrained, functional yet expressive.
The warm patina highlights the natural grain of the oak, enhancing the tactile quality that is often seen in Dutch Art Deco-period furniture. Compact in scale but rich in presence, this table works beautifully as a side table, lamp table, or accent piece in both classic and contemporary interiors.
About Amsterdam School
The Amsterdam School movement emerged in the Netherlands in the 1910s–1940s, known for its expressive forms, solid craftsmanship, and sculptural approach to design. Furniture from this period often combines architectural strength with refined detailing, emphasizing honest materials and artisanal construction. This table is a fine example of that philosophy, where form and function are inseparable.
Amsterdam School architects designed a lot of exteriors and interiors in Amsterdam, but the style spreaded further all around the Netherlands. The Hague has its own variant, called The Hague School.
