• Lot Description
  Prominent Hollywood Regency designer Robert Thibier seems to have kept some of his most masterful work for himself: This unique dining table, made from solid brass and white marble, was his personal creation, designed specifically to be used in his round dining room (see photograph) in his apartment at on Rue du Faubourg Saint HonorŽ in Paris. It is number two out of ten pieces he designed in this style. The curving, gleaming brass feet and the creamy white marble top feel typical of French neoclassical design, but the details make this piece truly unlike anything else. Each foot is a slender and graceful bird, ruffling up her feathers and then bending backward over her neck; the table's feet taper into a rendering of an actual bird's foot. They were documented in a French magazine, and the original invoice stating 49.800 Francs for the consoles (equivalent of Û13,500 Û today) is available. If desired as a set, two matching console tables from the same collection are currently up for sale.
