A Scandinavian Take on the Holiday Table

A Scandinavian holiday table is all about simplicity, warmth, and thoughtful details. We set the Myran table in our Apenanti showroom, embracing the holiday season with a table setting that brings warmth and contemporary elegance to every gathering. 

Our holiday table blends Scandinavian warmth with modern elegance. A soft, natural linen cloth sets a calm foundation, allowing every object on the table to breathe. The setting feels effortless yet intentional—subtle, layered, and beautifully understated.

Clean, sculptural glassware and the simple white plates from Iittala create a sense of balance, while warm brass accents and deep-toned candles bring in a quiet festive glow. The lighting is gentle and focused, casting a warm atmosphere that invites slow moments and long conversations.

The portable lamp from Louis Poulsen becomes a standout feature. With its warm, diffused light and timeless silhouette, it adds intimacy exactly where it’s needed—illuminating the dishes and drawing attention to the natural floral arrangement. Its cordless design allows it to be moved effortlessly around the table, making it as functional as it is beautiful.

Finishing touches—seasonal greenery, winter florals, and small natural elements—bring depth and organic warmth, staying true to Scandinavian design values.

The result is a holiday table where every piece has a purpose, every material adds meaning, and the overall impression is calm, modern, and welcoming.
