SM78
Patent pending Skovby #78 dining table.The unique design of this dining table is inspired by the very first eight-legged Skovby dining table. The dining tabletop is elliptical and the legs are half-elliptical. This gives the Skovby #78 dining table a harmonious and very light expression. The legs have a slightly sloping angle in relation to each other creating a small gap at the top – a new design, which also has a practical function. A special fitting on the outer legs makes it possible to adjust the legs in case they are affected by changes in air humidity. This solution is practical especially on solid dining tables that are more likely to expand and contract when exposed to fluctuations in air humidity and temperature.

Brand description
Skovby was founded in 1933 by cabinetmaker Thorvald Rasmussen. With vision, strenuous effort and professional pride he created a foundation for sustainable and functional furniture design, which his son Villy Rasmussen and grandsons Preben and Jørgen Rasmussen have carried on ever since. Early special assignments for the small one-man workshop quickly advanced to complete dining room suites and in less than 20 years Skovby furniture was produced in product lines. This development led to the build-up of an international dealership network. A healthy organic growth with a continuing focus on craftsmanship, natural materials and a sustainable business model that commits to employees and environment. The driving force, and a shared passion spanning the three generations of cabinetmakers, is function. Skovby was among the frontrunners within functional extension systems for tables, and today the furniture company is world renowned for a special talent to combine design and functionality. The continuous and direct reason for Skovby’s success is the ability to develop designs, which unite strong aesthetic expression with innovative function. Today, Preben and Jørgen Rasmussen run an international, high-technology business with a positive environmental imprint
