Tripod Side Table in Brass with Glass Top and Baluster Base. French Work.

This side table features a circular transparent glass top set in a molded brass rim, supported by three curved basket-like arms that connect to a finely turned central baluster shaft. The tripod base showcases three curved and tapered legs ending in discreet scrolls. The quality of the turning on the baluster shaft and the elegance of the basket stylistically link this side table to the productions of the Maison Baguès, a prestigious Parisian bronze art house, an absolute reference for golden brass accent furniture that influenced the entire French production of the 1950s. Condition report: Overall good condition. Brass with a beautiful homogeneous golden patina, glass may show some probable surface micro-scratches inherent to use. A lightweight and refined side table, perfect beside a sofa or near an armchair for placing a glass or a lamp.
