French Art Deco dining table designed by Raymond Subes, a piece that dates from 1932 and boasts the sumptuous style that characterized this creator. It achieves an elegant contrast of lines and materials: the light marble and marbled marble top with a rectangular profile is supported by a wrought iron structure that synthesizes the Déco postulates of vegetal abstraction and formal refinement. Thus, on the base of an "L", the uprights are erected in the form of refined bouquets that host lampshades, palmettes and scrolls that intertwine in an arc. This last motif, that of the interlaced semicircles topped with tulip, decorates the chambrana in the center of the transom. Designed with materials suitable for both indoors and outdoors, this table is versatile despite its uniqueness. It perfectly exemplifies the heights of Art Deco aesthetics.
