Each table features a gilt bronze frame with cylindrical uprights, resting on tapered legs adorned with rings and neoclassical-inspired decorative elements.

The upper surface is made of clear glass, framed in bronze, and the lower shelf is covered in leather, held in place by a bronze band. The set is distinguished by the quality of the casting, the precision of the joinery, and the balanced proportions, characteristic of high-end French decorative arts of the 1950s and 1960s.

Very good overall condition. Note: slight pitting of the gilt metal, visible in places, without detracting from the legibility or elegance of the whole.
