Danish Modern: just scratching the surface

I've started reading a new book {above}about one of my favorite design styles.  The Danish Modern movement started in 1930 and reigned for 40 years overlapping Mid-Century and Art Deco, two other favorites of mine.

{yes, I know, I have a lot of favorites, but I can because I'm sincere.}

Eero Saarinen's Tulip dining table {above}is a piece I would LOVE to own someday.  And especially so now that I have a thing for marble.  Reading about his contemporaries is a delight.  Guys like Frits Henningsen, Alvar Aalto and Tapio Wirkkala are a few lesser known names from this time period.  I'm only 22 pages into the book and I can tell it is going to take me awhile because I'm simultaneously googling every name I come across to see what I can find on him.  

More to share as I go, I'm sure.
