Produced by Bloc Métal in the 1960s, these pieces embody the industrial elegance of the postwar French modern era. Matching rectangular table in black lacquered metal available. ------------------------ We’re an exhibition space and an online destination established by the passionate art director behind Jonathan Amar design studio.
