Pair Of Coffee Tables By Mado Jolain & René Legrand, Circa 1955
Artist: Mado Jolain
A ceramicist trained at the École des Arts Décoratifs, Mado Jolain established her studio in Montrouge in the 1950s, where she collaborated closely with her husband, René Legrand. He designed the metal bases for their joint creations, combining structural rigor with artistic freedom. This pair of side tables is a characteristic example. Each table rests on a slender black lacquered iron frame, supporting a removable top composed of glazed stoneware tiles in vibrant yellow tones. The deliberately irregular mosaic composition plays on rhythm and the vibrancy of color, a signature of Jolain's work. These pieces are emblematic of the Atelier Jolain's production, at the crossroads of artistic ceramics and post-war decorative furniture. Mado Jolain Workshops, France, circa 1955.
