The exhibition presents a selection of the best handcrafted furniture from the post-war period chosen because of the exquisite workmanship that they display. The creative talents behind these pieces include renowned architects like Finn Juhl and Hans Wegner, but the focus is primarily on pieces by designers who are less known, often due to their limited output.Among them are Ejner Larsen & Axel Bender Madsen whose Game table in rosewood and ebony from 1966 is one of the exhibition highlights. Made in close collaboration with the highly skilled Cabinetmaker Willy Beck, it is an ideal example of design, cabinetmaking and leatherwork in a refined synthesis.
