Charming and full of character, this children's desk and chair set tells the story of post-war French school furniture, in the fine tradition of designers like Marcel Gascoin and Jean Hitier. The desk is simple and practical, with a wooden top featuring a small groove for a pencil. A sliding wooden drawer completes the set with understated elegance. The matching chair is appealing thanks to its curved tubular frame and S-shaped armrests, which lend the piece a light, mid-century feel. An authentic piece, modern at heart, that would easily find its place in a stylish and inviting interior. The set is vintage, dating from the 1950s. The desk and chair are matching. They are made of curved tubular metal, with a dominant, patinated green metallic paint that is oxidized in places. The plywood shows signs of age and use. It remains in good condition, and the color is warm. Desk: 49.5 x 39.5 cm, 55 cm high. Drawer height: 5 cm. Chair: 32 cm wide, 25-33 cm deep, 26 cm seat height, and 54 cm overall height.
