A pair table of brass side tables attributable to Maison Jansen, France, 1970s
A striking pair of brass side tables, attributable to Maison Jansen, France, dating from the 1970s. The tables feature a beautifully crafted brass structure with a faux bamboo motif, lending a subtle exotic elegance to their design. Each table is topped with a square glass surface with gently rounded edges, creating a harmonious balance between the organic texture of the brass and the clean clarity of the glass. Perfect for both classic and contemporary interiors, these side tables embody the sophisticated craftsmanship and timeless style for which Maison Jansen is celebrated, serving as both practical surfaces and eye-catching decorative accents.
Maison Jansen was a Paris-based interior decoration office founded in 1880 by Dutch-born Jean-Henri Jansen. Jansen is considered the first truly global design firm, serving clients in Europe, Latin America, North America and the Middle East. Throughout the firm's history, it employed a traditional style drawing upon European design, but influence of contemporary trends including the Vienna Secession, Modernism, and Art Deco has also appeared in Jansen interiors and in much of the custom furniture the firm produced between 1920 and 1950. Under Boudin's leadership, Maison Jansen provided services to the royal families of Belgium, Iran, and Serbia as well as Elsie de Wolfe and Lady Olive Baillie’s Leeds Castle in Kent, England. The firm's most published work was a project by Boudin and Paul Manno, the head of Jansen's New York office, for the U.S. White House during the administration of John F Kennedy. At the same time, Jansen completed the interior of the motor yacht Chambel IV, now renamed Northwind II. Northwind II is one of the few remaining complete Jansen commissions.
