• Lot Description
  A rare piece from Maison Jansen, this large dining table was a commission by a private client. With its impeccable design, perfect proportions, and high-end materials like mother of pearl and mahogany, it was likely a hugely expensive undertaking. Yet, the resulting symmetry and unusual beauty is a worthy result of such efforts. As expected for Hollywood Regency design, the structure feels rich, the thick legs made from solid mahogany wood and then plated with mordorŽ golden and dark brown lacquer finish. The tabletop is a lovely red leather, inlaid with unique geometric designs of gleaming brass and organic-feeling mother of pearl. The elongated octagonal shape of the table offers a final punch of individuality, shirking the typical oval or rectangle shape. Fully restored to very good vintage condition, this table reveals stunning attention to detail at every bend. It is a fascinating Jansen masterpiece.
