French midcentury Coffee Table “Map/Globe”, Maison Jansen

About the Item

Beautiful coffee table or side table made by Maison Jansen around the 1970s, decorated with a striking map. This coffee table has a simple structure made of wood, with straight lines and a square profile. The glass top has an antiqued gold brass frame that protects it and connects it to the structure and its covering a map print. This is a coffee table that follows the country style, so characteristic of British colonial art and adopted on many occasions by the Maison Jansen house. The map is titled “A new and correct map of the world down AC. Cording to the newest discoveries and form the most exact observations, by Herman Moll geographer.” This is a map made by Herman Moll in the 18th century, belonging to a collection of around thirty maps. These maps are distinguished by their elaborate cartouche and images. As with many of his works, Moll used these maps to promote and support British policy and regional rights throughout the world: he called the Atlantic Ocean the “Sea of ​​the British Empire”. A cartouche in the lower area reads: “To is most sacred majesty George, by the Grace of God king of Great Britain France & Ireland defender of the faith”. It is, therefore, a table of extraordinary quality and finish, which can be used as a games table, as a coffee table or as a side table for any corner. The prestigious Parisian brand Maison Jansen is one of the great interior design firms. It was founded by Jean-Henri Jansen in 1880, a Dutchman living in Paris, and soon established itself in a premises just a few metres from the Bastille. He was particularly noted for his restoration and cabinetmaking work, with the best craftsmen of his time. From the beginning, his intention was to combine traditional furniture with influences from new trends, including the Anglo-Japanese style, Chinoiserie, the Arts and Crafts movement and the Turkish style. He grew, opening workshops and shops all over the world, and decorated the homes of personalities such as the Kennedys, the Dukes of Windsor and Coco Chanel.

French Painting "Dahlias and Camellias" Paul Bazé, midcentury France
By Paul Robert Brock
Located in Valladolid, ES
Impressive and very beautiful oil on panel made by Paul Robert Bazé, an artist of French origin. It represents a still life with a bouquet of flowers in the foreground on a dark background. It mainly shows dahlias and camellias, which give the work its name. The traditional still life genre shows its evolution here. It presents the characteristic style of the genre to which it corresponds, realistic and meticulous, especially noticeable in the way it works with the different qualities of the flowers and leaves. The dark background is also inherited from the still life genre, with a marked dark interest reflected in the dark backgrounds. Signed in the lower left corner. Paul Robert Bazé (1901-1985) was born in Paris, although he soon moved to Bayonne and then to Bordeaux, where he was a student of Paul Quinsac...
