The Hardy Side Table features distinctive curved lines that pay homage to traditional furniture design. Its silhouette draws inspiration from 19th-century Captain's chairs and Smokers bow styles, creating soft curves reminiscent of classic Windsor pieces. The sturdy construction ensures lasting functionality, while the curved profile brings character and visual appeal to contemporary interiors.
Old Furniture, a poem by Dorset born Thomas Hardy, is an ode to beauty of furniture being handed down the generations, and David Irwin''s Hardy Side Table is a classic in the making. Two chair typologies from the 19th century, Thomas Hardy''s birth century, inspired the Hardy Series: firstly the Captain''s chair originally a low-backed wooden armchair and secondly, the Smokers bow, a low back Windsor, often used in smoking rooms, public houses, barbers shops and cottages. You can see these reflected in the soft curves of the Hardy Side Table. For dimensions refer to the technical drawing below.
