Representative of André Dubreuil's singular universe, our table embodies his formal research and expertise in materials. Commissioned from Galerie Mougin in 2009, it features a composition of volumes and lines that defy the constraints of steel and copper.
The result is a work that is both light and robust, in which the interplay of curves and straight lines interacts with the shine of metal and delicate glass inlays. The subtle palette of browns, ochres and golds further enhances the work's refinement.
With its silhouette and ornamental elegance, our table evokes the influence of the antique furniture that fascinated André Dubreuil, and can be read as a contemporary reinterpretation of the Louis XV style.
