Large neo-classical coffee table made by Jean Maurice Rothschild (1902-1998) circa 1950. A renowned designer and craftsman, he studied at the Ecole Boulle in Paris in 1917, designed the decor for the Eiffel Tower restaurant in 1937 and designed the furniture for the Normandie liner, among others. This original rectangular table is topped with a beautiful light green marble forming a seafoam with a groove around its edge. The marble is set in a guilloche iron frame with a recessed edge. This ensemble rests on a solid metal structure ending in large concave fan-shaped legs. Each leg is decorated with large, intriguing figures supporting the table with their backs. They sit cross-legged and smiling, dressed in traditional costume. On each side, we find large iron scrolls accompanied by a falling round ring. A rare and massive table, this creation by Jean Maurice Rothschild will attract attention by its singularity. ******** Period: 1950 Excellent condition.
