Literature
Jacques Barsac, Charlotte Perriand: Un Art d’Habiter, 1903-1959, Paris, 2005, p. 274 (for the model in the Catalogue de l'Equipement de la Maison, 1947), and p. 335 (for the model in the catalogue of the Bureau de Coordination du Bâtiment, 1952)
Condition
Good overall condition. The wood of the doors presents with greater figuring when viewed in person than it appears in the catalogue illustration. Overall the color of the work presents with a deeper and richer tone in comparison to the catalogue illustration. The wood surfaces with minor surface scratches, edge abrasions and minor losses to the veneer, consistent with age and gentle use. The wooden surface of the top has been repolished. Some of the losses have been restored along the edges. Light discoloration to the surface of the door. The interior with some of the screws later replaced. The right compartment with possibly new fitted runners for a drawer now missing. Each compartment with one shelf. A very nice example of an iconic model.
