This console table perfectly embodies the avant-garde and sculptural aesthetic of 1970s French design, influenced by the work of Maria Pergay, an iconic figure of brutalist and minimalist design of the era.

Very heavy brushed steel structure with clean lines and a slightly satiny matte finish. The steel is crafted with great precision, revealing a subtle balance between industrial robustness and refined elegance.
Top: Smoked glass with clean edges, providing visual depth and a sense of lightness in contrast with the metal structure.

The console table rests on two side legs formed by symmetrical semicircular arches, evoking an "inverted U" motif, a formal element frequently found in Pergay's work. The two arches are joined by a horizontal central crosspiece, ensuring stability while emphasizing the overall graphic appearance.

The geometry is both rigorous and fluid, playing on curved and taut lines.

Modernist style with a futuristic touch typical of the 1970s. The influence of kinetic art and minimalist architecture is evident.
