About the Item

An Elegant and Timeless French Art Deco / Mid-century Modern cocktail table in the Modern Neoclassical spirit by iconic French designer, Rene Drouet, France, circa 1940. The subtle and quietly dramatic table is exquisitely hand hammered into lyrical wrought iron form and is hand gilt in copper color gold leaf. The glass top is hand made via a process in which it was cast in sand and is cream by the Saint Gobain glass workshop in Neuilly, just outside of Paris. The piece expresses the ethos of France during the late 1930's / early 1940's and is considered a rare classic of the period. Additional References: French Art Deco, Gilbert Poillerat, Andre Arbus, Jacques Adnet, Jacques Quinet, Marc du Plantier, Alberto and Diego Giacometti, Jean-Michel Frank.

An exceptional coffee table in gilt wrought iron with distressed mirror plate top by the renowned designer Rene Drouet 1899 -1993. The heavy wrought iron base with ring details and visible bole beneath the gilt on the legs and edges, still coupled with its original mirror plate, this sought after coffee table is absolutely stunning to look at, and of super proportions.

French Modernist Gilded Wrought-Iron & Glass Coffee Accent Table ca. 1950s
Located in Shippensburg, PA
MODERNIST GILDED WROUGHT-IRON AND GLASS COFFEE TABLE French, circa 1950s unmarked Item # 401RGG02P-1 An endlessly interesting modernist accent table from the 1950s, it works perfectly both as a side table beside a low sofa or chair or as a coffee or cocktail table. The diminutive stature of the table allows it to be a part of the room without dominating at all, adding texture and visual interest with the brilliantly textured gilt patina while having a great deal of negative space that makes the table feel light, airy and relaxed. The 3/8" thick (and brand new) glass top is set into tiny grooves in the legs, each with a single twisted iron ring hanging from the top with a gentle curved profile that terminates in a stubbed sabot. Ready to place. We acquired this together with a matched pair to this that is almost identical in size but is a simple black patination instead of having the gilt surface on the wrought iron; contact us if you would like to know about the other table. Measurements: 19 1/8" H x 29 5/8" diameter Condition Report: Glass is brand new 3/8" thick tempered clear glass; table in very good condition, light wear to gilding and overall patina in a few spots, incredibly sturdy and solid. A fine ready-to-place presentation. About silla antiques...
