Coffee table in lava stone, ceramic and steel by Jean Jaffeux 1960.

Superb mid-century coffee table. The top is made of terracotta-coloured lava stone tiles and ceramic tiles. The base is made of steel. Jean Jaffeux (1931-2015) was an Auvergne ceramist and painter, specialising in glazing on lava stone. For over fifty years, he created decorative works and monumental commissions for churches, public buildings, and private individuals. His work, often featuring abstract patterns or inspired by nature, helped to promote the art of glazed lava in France and around the world. His coffee tables, along with other materials, are in the same vein as the coffee tables of Roger Capron and Vallauris. Designer: Jean Jaffeux. Publisher: Atelier Jean Jaffeux. Origin: France.
