Historical context
This table reflects the French decorative aesthetic of 1925-1930, a period marked by the rise of Art Deco. The combined use of lumachelle marble and carved supports with geometric motifs, here stylised squirrels, reflects the period’s interest in a synthesis of sculptural craftsmanship, noble materials and modernised geometry. This type of production belongs to a search for balance between monumentality, architectural decoration and mineral refinement characteristic of the interwar years.
