"Maison Bagues Or Ramsey - Nesting Tables From The 1950s"
BAGUES OR RAMSEY (Attributed to) - Elegant set of three coffee tables with fluted four-legged bases and brushed and gilt metal frames, topped with clear beveled glass surrounded by dark gilt mirror borders. Parisian work from the 1940s-1950s. LOUIS XVI STYLE AND MODERNITY. Comprising a rectangular side table and a pair of quadragular end tables, this elegant set of coffee tables features clear beveled glass tops surrounded by a border and a wide band with a gilt mirrored background. Set within a simple brushed and gilt metal frame, they rest on four-legged bases with connecting feet. Linked by a side bar, each tubular leg is adorned with fine fluting punctuated by rings—motifs that lend lightness and harmony to this furniture set with its clean lines. Stripped of all ornamentation, these nesting coffee tables, combining glass and metal, simple geometric shapes, and concise profiles for functional purposes, are stylistically similar to the iconic models created during the 1940s and 50s by renowned furniture and design houses such as Baguès and Ramsey. In fact, they offer a contemporary reinterpretation of the aesthetic characteristics of the Louis XVI period, a testament to timeless French elegance. A set that suits any interior.
