very similar to pierre paulin's creations for thonet of the period, we love the intricate details of the top with its slightly rounded oak joints.
the design (the overall graphic aspect) is enhanced by the second graphic line parallel to the top, which adds volume to the overall look and highlights the drawers.
the black metal handles are reminiscent of those used on paulin's cm141s.
very good overall condition, with a patina of use.
some marks on the inside of the drawers.
