Fredericia's model BM67 is a minimalist coffee table designed by one of the masters of Danish design, Børge Mogensen. Combining the natural warmth of wood with the sophisticated sheen of brass, the coffee table consists of a top in veneered walnut supported by a sledge base and brass stretchers, the latter of which creates a fascinating break from the sleek, straight lines and visual harmony of the design. What's best, both the oiled wood surface and the brass will develop a characterful patina over time, adding that extra dose of character to the elegant table design.

Designer
Danish furniture designer Børge Mogensen (1914 –1972) was one of the most influential designers of the Danish modern. Mogensen studied furniture design at Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, and his designs aimed at functionality, minimalist appearance and easy accessibility. Soon after his graduation Mogensen was named the chief of Danish Consumers’ Co-operative Society FDB, which focused on producing functional, durable and affordable furniture for all social classes.
Mogensen’s designs were often extremely modest and confident at the same time, and the same goes for his personality. Mogensen preferred to work with traditional and natural materials, but also liked to experiment with new techniques and supported the industrial production of furniture. His work was also influenced by folk art, lithography and Japanese wood carvings. During his career Mogensen was awarded with the Eckersberg Medal and C.F. Hansen Medal, and in 1972 he was named Honorary Royal Designer for Industry by the British Royal Society of Arts.
