The rectangular top features an intricate parquetry of alternating oak grain—quietly rhythmic, softly geometric—framed by a clean border that lends architectural clarity.

Below, the duo’s signature inverted fin legs provide visual lift and structural poise. Each pair is connected by a carved stretcher with subtle chamfering—a hallmark of the Atelier Votre Maison workshop. Two hidden leaves glide smoothly from beneath the top, extending the length from 60" to 87", allowing the table to shift fluidly from intimate dinners to larger gatherings.

Robert Guillerme and Jacques Chambron, both trained at the École Boulle, created work grounded in authenticity, balance, and craft—now synonymous with French 20th-century design.

Condition: Overall in great vintage condition. The table is solid and structurally sound, with all extension hardware functioning smoothly. The leaves show slight tonal variation compared to the main top, likely due to less exposure over time, but are fully removable and do not detract from the overall appearance. Minor surface wear consistent with age and use.
