Part of one of Maison Leleu's most significant post-war commissions, this sleek dining table embodies jet age modernism imbued with grandeur. It was designed for the Villa Médy Roc in Cap d’Antibes (South of France), for which Maison Leleu was chosen to provide new furniture, lighting, and carpets in 1957.
