PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
This side table features a quadrangular silvered metal structure with tapered and fluted uprights, topped with spinning-top finials and extended by tapering sheath feet. The two mirror tops, bordered by a reflective frame, are underlined at the apron by fine beaded friezes that mark the refinement of the whole.
This silvered version of the neoclassical vocabulary is characteristic of the productions of Maison Jansen, the great Parisian decorating house founded in 1880, supplier to royal courts and the most prestigious residences. Rarer than the gilt brass versions, the silvered finish brings a very contemporary freshness.
Condition report: Good overall condition. Bright and even silvering, mirrors that may show probable surface micro-scratches inherent to use. A luminous side table, ideal alongside a sofa or as a precious bedside table.
