No 1 Side Table
The exclusive and elegant side table was designed by Helge Sibast in the late 1950s. He made it as a gift for his wife, and for many years only three bespoke pieces existed, handed down as precious gifts within the family until they found their present home with Anna and Ditlev Sibast. The side table has been put into production by the current owners of the family company with the purpose of sharing this warm gift and beautiful design. Originally, the side table was made with a black glass plate in the centre of the table top, emphasising the minimalist design. Today, the tabletop is also available in white marble and soap finish that complement the wooden structure.

Sibast Furniture
The year was 1908. In the countryside on the island of Funen in Denmark the son of a skilled cabinetmaker was born. His name was Helge Sibast. Helge Sibast grew up and became his fathers apprentice. He worked hard, dedicated and soon developed skills of high quality craftsmanship. He took over his fathers business and began expanding. Thinking about craftsmanship in a new way. He had a natural sense for challenging wood as a material and began creating his own designs.
By the 1950’s and 60’s he had created a furniture factory employing over 120 craftsmen crafting some of the finest furniture in Danish design history. The furniture was sold around the world. The company was called Sibast Furniture. That man was my grandfather.
Helge Sibast passed away in 1985 and Sibast Furniture was no longer in our family. A great adventure had come to an end.
The years went by, and one very inspiring day in the spring of 2013, I together with my wife Anna Sibast discovered a forgotten beauty designed by my grandfather in 1953 – the chair Sibast No 8. It was too unique to let go. And we decided to re-launch the Danish Design Classic. And by what other name could we do it than the name Sibast Furniture.
