Eileen Gray: Table - 419






Folding table with chromium-plated frame. Black or white laminated top.

History:
Designed by Eileen Gray. In the spring of 1922 while Eileen Gray was finishing the apartment on rue de Lota, she opened a showroom on rue du Faubourg St. Honoré to sell her work. For some reason, now unknown, this was called Jean Désert. This commercial venture sold carpets, lacquered furniture and Eileen Gray's designs of tubular furniture produced in small series. In 1930, this company was closed and she dedicated herself to Architecture. This table was one of those pieces designed for Jean Désert.
