Wood, Metal, and a Low Centre of Gravity

In the early 1940s, Jean Prouvé began to work more extensively with wood. The Guéridon Bas has a heavy top in solid oak or American walnut resting on three legs in the same wood, joined together by a robust connecting element in bent sheet metal. The result is a low coffee table with a strong material presence — substantial without being heavy.

The dark finish version harks back to an original made from tropical wood, known as the Table Africaine. Both versions are available in natural oak, dark oak, or American walnut.
