'Cocktail Bench' by Finn Juhl

In 1951 Finn Juhl designed the 'Cocktail Bench' for the American company Baker Furniture.

In the 1950s, the economy in the USA was booming. Hollywood and the new upper class had made cocktail parties immensely popular, and Finn Juhl was easily impressed by this newfound American extravagance, which he got to experience through his new and influential American friends.

For this reason, the Finn Juhl collection includes a few pieces of furniture inspired by the American cocktail parties of the Fifties. The bench can also be seen in Finn Juhl's own home north of Copenhagen and works well as a table for art, a stack of books or a lamp.
