Description

XXXX

Very rare and attractive desk designed by famous Jean Prouvé in 1934. The desk comes on a steel frame and contains three drawers in two different sizes. The tabletop is linoleum. Manufactured by Atelier Jean Prouvé. As much as the Bauhaus designers believed in steel tube, as much Prouvé was fascinated by the creative potential of laminar steel sheets. The cold and functional aesthetics of this furniture attracts Le Corbusier's attention. Later he also meets Charlotte Perriand, with whom he designs furniture in the 1950s, among them book shelves of wood and steel sheet.
