Exemplifying the sophisticated restraint and luxurious materials associated with French modernism, the table combines elegant proportion with refined craftsmanship. The round form, when closed, is supported by graceful square tapering legs accented with finely cast bronze mounts and sabots, lending warmth and subtle architectural detail to the streamlined silhouette.

Designed for versatility and grand entertaining, the table retains its three original mahogany leaves, each measuring 19.75 inches, allowing the table to expand from an intimate round configuration to an impressive oblong form with a fully extended width of 107 inches. The dramatic figuring of the Macassar ebony, with its striking linear grain and rich tonal variation, is beautifully complemented by the warmth of the mahogany extensions and restrained bronze detailing.

A rare and highly desirable example of Maison Dominique craftsmanship, this table reflects the atelier’s celebrated balance of Art Deco elegance and early modern refinement. Equally suited to formal or contemporary interiors.
