Object of Desire: Multicolored Metal Table and Stools from Skagerak

If you’re in the market for outdoor furniture, may we suggest checking out Skagerak? The family-owned Danish design company currently has 16 outdoor furniture collections in a range of styles, but all skewing minimalist and Scandi. (Two of its wooden garden benches made our 10 Easy Pieces list.)

Recently, Skagerak launched the Gerda line: a small table and stools made of perforated metal. The cafe proportions are just right for a corner of your patio or a small garden; the colors are understated but interesting enough to be noticed and admired. Have a look.

Above: The aluminum Gerda table and stools were designed by Included Middle, a collaboration between a furniture designer and a textiles designer. The collection was inspired and named after Danish textiles artist Gerda Henning.

Above: The perforations reference Henning’s checkered tablecloth. The table is currently on sale for $665 and each stool for $311 on Finnish Design Shop. It’s also available at Horne for $1,149 and $539, respectively, with free shipping.
