The Fritz Hansen Essay CM27 Dining Table by Danish designer Cecilie Manz is a statement piece for spacious dining rooms and contemporary interiors.
Measuring 272 cm in length, it offers generous room for family dining, entertaining and shared occasions, while its understated design allows the beauty of solid wood to take centre stage.
With its long rectangular tabletop, substantial supporting bases and carefully balanced proportions, the Essay CM27 combines a confident architectural presence with the simplicity of Scandinavian design. It is a table designed to bring people together, creating a natural focal point for the home. Cecilie Manz is recognised for her thoughtful approach to furniture, combining functional clarity with a considered use of materials.
The Essay table reflects this philosophy through its straightforward construction and elegant proportions. The design comprises three principal elements: a spacious tabletop and two supporting bases. Free from unnecessary ornamentation, its clean lines make it equally suited to minimalist interiors, contemporary family homes and more traditional dining spaces.
At 272 cm long and 100 cm wide, the Essay CM27 is particularly well suited to larger dining rooms and open-plan living spaces. Its generous proportions create a welcoming setting for entertaining, family celebrations and long meals with friends. Optional extension leaves are available for selected Essay configurations. Check the options for this model to confirm the appropriate extension specification for your chosen table.
With two artist parents, Cecilie Manz encountered the world of design in early childhood in their workshop. Her own career began in 1992 with an academic education from The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. Following a semester abroad at the University of Art and Design in Helsinki, Manz started her own company, which has been the focus of her work ever since.
