Description
Elegant, timeless French Mid-Century Modern Neoclassical double level sofa table or console in solid brass with smoked glass tops by Guy Le Febvre for Maison Jansen. The piece was conceived as a masterpiece of form, function and materials. The piece is conceived in antiqued solid brass which has a deep richness. The Greek Key form is used as an architectural motif to signify its connection to design history and the top level is stunningly cantilevered over the bottom level to serve both the form and practical function of the console. 2 Original pieces of French smoked glass complete the piece.
Bottom shelf: H 11 x L 55 x 7.5 D.
