PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Brass coffee table with dolphin decoration and a top made of gilt-on-glass tiles. The dolphins, a motif of classical inspiration, enliven the brass structure, while the tiles of the top play with the light. Maison Jansen, circa 1940.
The dolphin belongs to the ornamental repertoire inherited from Antiquity, taken up by neoclassicism and frequently used in 20th-century decorative furniture. The gilt-on-glass decoration, paired with brass, reflects the taste of the 1930s and 1940s for reflective materials and precious finishes. Placed in front of a sofa, this coffee table offers a display surface that is both practical and decorative, bringing brilliance to the living room.
