Why a Danish oval

  1. 01

    Between oval and rectangle

    A Danish oval is a superellipse: fuller than an oval, softer than a rectangle. A shape you know from Scandinavian design.

  2. 02

    More room in the curves

    Because the shape is fuller, you still sit comfortably in the curves. At 240 x 110 cm there's room for 6 to 8 people.

  3. 03

    Indoors and out

    A Danish oval table looks just as good in a dining room as on a terrace. For outdoors we make it in an outdoor version.

What is a Danish oval table?
A table shaped like a superellipse: between an oval and a rectangle. The sides are fuller than an oval's, the corners softer than a rectangle's. The shape is known from Scandinavian design.
What is the difference between a Danish and a Finnish oval?
A Finnish oval has straight long sides with two semicircles at the ends. A Danish oval has no straight parts: the edge curves softly all the way round, and it's fuller than an oval. Same size, but the Danish oval looks rounder.
How many people fit at a Danish oval table?
A Danish oval table of 200 x 100 cm seats 4 to 6 people, 240 x 110 cm seats 6 to 8 people and 280 x 120 cm seats 6 to 10 people. The configurator shows it for every size.
Can a Danish oval table go outdoors?
Yes. For terraces and gardens we make it in an outdoor version: an adapted build-up, special varnishes and extra protective top coats. That makes it winterproof. Cover it when you won't be using it for a while.
Danish, Finnish or Swedish oval: what is the difference?
A Finnish oval has straight long sides with rounded ends. A Swedish oval is a rectangle with large, soft corners. A Danish oval has no straight parts and looks the roundest. All three side by side, with sizes and prices, in Danish, Finnish or Swedish oval: the difference.
