Vintage perforated metal dessert trolley — Mathieu Matégot style — 1950s

Rare vintage serving trolley in perforated metal, emblematic of French design from the 1950s, reminiscent of the work of Mathieu Matégot and his famous use of openwork metal. The piece is distinguished by: — a black tubular structure. — two trays in perforated sheet metal in contrasting red and yellow. — a compartmentalised upper tray, both graphic and functional. — its original wheels, which enhance its workshop/modernist character. The whole offers a light and structured silhouette, typical of post-war design, straddling the line between utilitarian furniture and a collector's piece. Perfect as: — a serving trolley for the living room or kitchen. — a side table in a vintage or contemporary interior. — a display for books, objects, or collections. — a statement piece in a decorative setting. Condition: beautiful, even patina of use, consistent with its age, with no structural alterations. Period: 1950s–60s. Materials: perforated metal, tubular steel. Dimensions: Width: 99 cm. Height: 80 cm. Depth: 35 cm.
