Elegant Art Deco side table attributed to Jacques Adnet, executed as a pure rectangular block veneered in luxurious Makassar ebony and crowned with a thick inset glass top. The dark, ribbon‑grained ebony is finished in a high‑gloss polish that subtly reflects light, while the glass—likely lightly smoked—sits flush within a narrow wooden frame to create a continuous, mirror‑like surface.
This minimalist, architectural volume exemplifies Adnet’s refined modernism, favoring perfect proportions and noble materials over applied ornament. Its compact footprint makes it an ideal end table beside a club chair or as a low plinth for sculpture or decorative objects in a sophisticated Art Deco or contemporary interior.
Condition: Very good vintage condition, with minor surface wear consistent with age and careful use.
