About the Item
Desk table called “Gerard Philipe” by Jules Wabbes.
Solid laminated Padouk desk resting on 4 steel legs with “gun barrel” finish.
3 storage under the top.
The model takes its name from the actor Gérard Philipe (F) (Gérard Albert Philip 1922 – 1959) who was the model’s first customer.
Jules Wabbes therefore decided to name the piece of furniture “bureau Gerard Philipe”.
Accompanied by the certificate of authenticity signed by Marie Wabbes, daughter and beneficiary of the artist
Thanks to its compact dimensions, this desk can also be used as a console.
The desk is also accompanied by a walnut chair with an ebony patina upholstered in natural leather.
Designed by Edward Wormley for “Dunbar” , distributed at the time by “Mobilier Universel”
