Grain Tables is a minimalist design created by Copenhagen-based designer Nikolai Kotlarczyk. Ash timber holds a special place in Danish and Nordic history and the immense Ash tree Yggdrasil is referred to as the “tree of life” in Norse Mythology. Yggdrasil sat in the centre of a circular area that was the gathering place of the gods. This gathering place was supported by three large roots that reached far below, to the wells of Uròarbrunnr and Mimisbrunnr, and the spring Hvergelmir. A visual reference to Yggdrasil can be seen through the circular table tops and oversized turned legs of the Grain tables.
