The SSU Carved Coffee Table L is a hand-carved walnut coffee table by Louise Liljencrantz, from the Veermakers Collection.
Its defining feature is a deliberate material contrast: the broad flat top is finished smooth in light tan-brown walnut, while the body underneath is deeply carved by hand, its texture raw and irregular. This juxtaposition of refined and rough within a single piece of wood is the formal idea the SSU Carved explores. The piece's silhouette is organic and irregular — cut from a wooden mass rather than assembled from parts.
The carving on the underside is done by hand in Veermakers' Stockholm workshop, using traditional techniques that leave visible tool marks as part of the finish. No two tables share exactly the same carved pattern, since each is the result of a specific handworking session. The walnut is chosen for its warm tonal range and its suitability for both fine finishing and raw carving.
The SSU name runs across two table variants: the Carved and the Smooth. The two pieces are formal counterparts — same base silhouette, opposite surface treatments.

About
Veermakers
Louise Liljencrantz and KFK Cabinet Makers, a Stockholm-based joinery firm, launched Veermakers in 2021, building on years of collaboration that had already produced LKFK Edition in 2017.
The studio works from a premise it calls slow design: each piece is made to last rather than to trend. Solid walnut, oak, Italian travertine, and steel burned in linseed oil are the materials of choice. Lighting pieces carry handwoven silk shades made in the Stockholm atelier. Most production happens in-house; specialist manufacturers handle select materials, as with the Italian travertine used in the Frank and Arrow Lamps.
Liljencrantz draws on the Swedish design tradition, with references to figures such as Gunnar Asplund and Jonas Bohlin, but the results are distinct: furniture that is spare without being cold, material-forward without being decorative. The studio has been covered by Wallpaper, Design Milk, and Interior Design magazine since its debut at Stockholm Design Week in 2021.
Signature works on Monde Singulier include the Pear collection, a limited edition table in solid walnut designed exclusively for the Paris showroom, and the studio's broader furniture and lighting range in solid wood, travertine, and hand-burnished steel.
