About the Item

Large dining table designed by André Sornay, produced circa 1930. This emblematic piece perfectly illustrates the formal language developed by Sornay in the early 1930s: geometric rigor softened by understated elegance. The four slightly splayed legs are sheathed and accented with aluminum tubes, a technical detail characteristic of his work. The rectangular tabletop in cherry tree veneer includes two 50 cm extensions, offering valuable modularity for both everyday use and formal entertaining. A fine example of modernist furniture from Lyon, combining structural ingenuity with formal restraint. The entire piece has been professionally refinished by our partner cabinetmaker. Manufacturer: Meubles Sornay, circa 1930.
