The Fredericia Insula Piccolo Side Table is a small piece, but it has a surprising amount of character. Designed by Anne-Mette Bartholin-Jensen and Morten Ernst, it shares the same softly asymmetrical shape as the larger Insula tables, giving it a more relaxed and natural feel than a typical side table. It’s distinctive without being overly noticeable, which is part of its appeal.Made from aluminium, the table has a light appearance that almost makes it seem as though it’s hovering slightly above the floor. The slim top and angular frame keep the design clean and uncomplicated, while the irregular shape adds just enough interest to stop it feeling predictable. It’s one of those pieces that looks simple at first, but the proportions and balance have clearly been thought through very carefully.The Insula Piccolo Side Table sits comfortably beside a sofa, lounge chair or bed, where its compact size makes it genuinely useful without taking over the space around it. It also works beautifully alongside other tables from the Insula collection if you want to create a more layered arrangement. Quietly sculptural and easy to place, it’s the sort of table that seems to fit almost anywhere.
