Roger Capron Ceramic and Floral Print Coffee Table, 1960s

Coffee table designed by French ceramist Roger Capron in the 1960s. Features a wooden structure and an enameled ceramic top with floral patterns. The famous Garrigue tiles by Roger Capron, created in 1968, adorn the table. The handcrafted tiles are made using a unique technique where real leaves and flowers are pressed into the clay before firing, leaving behind a highly detailed imprint. The plants used are from the "La Garrigue" region in southeastern France where Capron lived and worked. These tiles have inspired numerous tables and wall coverings, with many kitchens in the French Riviera featuring them on their walls. The ceramic top is in excellent condition while the wooden parts show signs of age and use. There are marker spots underneath the top, which are not visible when placed.
