Coffee Table by Roger Capron with "Garrigue" Tiles

$ 5,790
  • Description
    *** Important detail: custom height available (1)***

    Coffee table with the famous Roger Capron Garrigue tiles, designed from 1968 to 1982. Mr. Capron was often balancing his designs by incorporating either brown or white enameled terra cotta tiles. The handcrafted Garrigue tiles are produced by a technique in which real leaves were pressed into the clay and, during firing, disintegrated, leaving a finely detailed imprint. The leaves come from "La Garrigue", a variety of vegetation indigenous to southeastern France only, where Roger Capron lived and worked for 60 years.

    These Garrigue tiles inspired a large series of side to dining tables, including wall covering. Many kitchen in the French Riviera have their walls covered with Garrigue tiles.

    This table is mounted on a really sturdy dovetail metal frame. It is in near perfect condition, patina due to age on metal frame.

    (1) Mr Capron was extremely influenced by the Japanese life style; coffee table are usually low. We can change the legs to match your desired height. Please keep in mind that we provide this service only for the tables that have a dovetail frame and for which the frames have a similar look with the replacement legs. We do not paint the frame nor the legs.

    We apply an invisible sealer and a mat or satin varnish to protect the metal from rusting. We charge $160 for this service.
