VITRA Gueridon Bas

Prouvé's production facility in Maxeville, France allowed him the unique opportunity of combining industrial aesthetics with technical know-how. In his furniture designs, Prouvé combines his technical know-how and the opportunities offered by his production facility with it's unique industrial aesthetics.  In the early 1940s, he  turned his attention increasingly to wood as a material. In the case of the Guéridon Bas coffee table, a sturdy top is positioned on three solid oak feet. The elements are connected to each other by means of a folded sheet metal construction. Referencing a tropical wood version of the time entitled "Table Africaine", this re-edition is also available in impregnated dark oak.
