Pentagonal table of Arcs, Charlotte Perriand around 1973

Pentagonal table designed by Charlotte Perriand for the Nova and Les Lauzières residences in Les Arcs 1800 in the 1970s. It features a thick pentagonal top made of laminated solid pine resting on a central cruciform base in black lacquered steel. Its unique geometry allows for multiple compositions and illustrates the functional approach developed by Charlotte Perriand for communal spaces and mountain apartments. This table retains a beautiful patina and shows signs of restoration. Bibliography: Charlotte Perriand, The Complete Works, vol. 4: 1968-1999, Jacques Barsac, Norma, p. 268.
