original Halabala nesting tables – Bauhaus modernism (1930s)

This elegant set of three nesting tables was designed by Jindřich Halabala for UP Brno in the 1930s. Halabala was the chief designer at the Brno-based furniture manufacturer UP Závody, and his extensive portfolio of outstanding designs in the Bauhaus and functionalist modernist styles is widely recognized.

With their clean lines and functional design, they reflect the principles of Bauhaus Modernism, combined with the craftsmanship and formal language of Czechoslovak Modernism. What makes this set remarkable is its perfect balance between minimalist elegance and inviting warmth. The geometric clarity of Bauhaus design is softened by the rich wood tones, making these tables not only visually striking but also welcoming in any space.

The tables are made of stained solid wood, while the tabletops are finished with tortoiseshell-colored Bakelite—a signature material of the era, known for its durability and refined appearance. The minimalist geometry and balanced proportions make this set highly versatile, whether used as side tables, display surfaces, or for additional storage.

A timeless piece of modernist furniture, perfect for collectors and design enthusiasts alike. With its understated charm and warm elegance, this set is a rare example of how Bauhaus principles can create both sophistication and comfort in one design.
