Condition
Overall in very good condition. The metal components of the table have acquired a nice patination with age, and show light surface scratches, pitting, and small areas of isolated discoloration. The lower portion of the table, as seen in the catalogue illustration showing the concentration of the scratches and pitting. The top with surface scratches and pitting. The glass used in this design is thick with a slight green tone to the edges. A very sleek modern design and rare work by the designer for a firm recognized more for their early Art Deco output.
