Marie-Claude De Fouquières orange fractal resin coffee table 1970

Creator: Marie Claude Fouquieres
Offered by: Maison Cedric

Description
This coffee table, designed by Marie-Claude de Fouquières in the 1970s, is a remarkable piece. Its tabletop is crafted from amber orange fractal resin with golden reflections, reminiscent of the cosmos. Fractal resin is the result of a complex chemical process, stemming from high-temperature baking followed by multiple polishing phases. Its appearance is often described as quasi-magical, with its shimmering, fragmented patterns and unique characteristics, such as bubbles or crystals. Each piece of fractal resin is unique, making this coffee table a one-of-a-kind item. It is supported by a brushed steel brutalist frame and feet, adding to its characteristic charm of the 1970s. This iconic work of its time is a true masterpiece that will capture attention.
Marie-Claude de Fouquières (1937) is a French furniture designer who created approximately 1,800 pieces in fractal resin between 1969 and 1977. Her "exploded" style, achieved through a chemical reaction in the resin, earned her international acclaim, attracting prestigious clients such as David de Rothschild and the Emir of Qatar, as well as renowned decorators like David Hicks and Henri Samuel. Like Maria Pergay with stainless steel, de Fouquières was a pioneer of her time, working with a material emblematic of the 1970s.
