The base of this table was designed in 1928 using the ovoidal profiles adopted in aviation to maintain separate the wings of biplanes. The distinctive idea of the 6 Table Tube D'Avion is to make a distinction between its load-bearing base and the top that was to be supported. Each piece is completely autonomous and this is highlighted by the addition of the four middle support pieces used to adjust the height and keep the slim rectangular top in place over its heavy base.The size of crystal, glass or marble table is 225x85 cm.The size of oak or walnut table is 170x75 cm.
