An illuminating side or coffee table by Henri Fernandez, France, circa 1970

£2,595.00

A stunning and striking sculptural coffee table or side table in the form of a butterfly with its wings outstretched. Hand made by the famous designer of the 1970s Henri Fernandez, this item is made largely from quality brass and agate slices, the side table lights up with four light points positioned behind the agate slices to give a warm translucent glow to the agate. Hand made by the famous designer of the 70s, he named this model “canard“ (duckling).

Certain to imbue your contemporary space with a touch of extravagance, this side table feels decidedly of the Hollywood Regency ilk, which championed opulence, luxury, colour contrasts, and game-changing modernity.

Henri Fernandez left a legacy on design which are now turning back into trends. In the 1970’s Henri was already designing art furniture which drew inspiration from the natural world. Henri contributed for the collections of many artists back then such as Jacques Duval-Brasseur and Maison Honoré, using noble materials like brass, Agathe stones, and other semi-precious stones. All the pieces he designed to make a statement and can be defined as art. He defies the boundaries between art and design. It is clear to see the collaboration between the two artists and this side table lamp exemplifies Henri’s work.
