Églomisé Table By Guy Lefevre

Large Brass and Églomisé Glass Low Table by Guy Lefevre for Maison Jansen.
The original églomisé glass top is set within a substantial brass frame, with brass-tipped feet completing the elegant design. A clear glass lower shelf provides a practical finishing touch, making this table both a striking statement piece and a functional addition to any interior.
Guy LeFèvre was a prominent mid-20th-century French furniture designer, closely associated with Maison Jansen, the legendary Parisian interior design firm founded in 1880. Known for his refined sense of luxury and modern elegance, LeFèvre created pieces that became staples of high-style interiors in Europe and beyond.
Guy LeFèvre’s Design Aesthetic
LeFèvre’s work was defined by the bold use of rich materials and striking contrasts. His designs often combined gunmetal, brass, or gilt surfaces with smoked glass or mirror, producing furniture that was both sleek and glamorous. This sophisticated interplay of texture and material gave his creations a timeless appeal, making them highly sought after in prestigious private residences and international collections. Today, his work remains admired for its modern classicism and continues to be in demand among collectors and designers.
Maison Jansen:
Founded by Dutch-born Jean-Henri Jansen in 1880, Maison Jansen became one of the world’s most celebrated interior design firms. Blending traditional craftsmanship with contemporary influences, the firm catered to an elite clientele that included royalty, heads of state, and cultural icons. Notable commissions included interiors for the Duchess of Windsor, the Shah of Iran, the King of Egypt, and the Rockefeller family, as well as the U.S. Embassy in Paris and numerous European embassies.
Maison Jansen also left its mark on some of the most prestigious hotels of the 20th century, including the Ritz in Paris, the Plaza in New York, and the Beverly Hills Hotel. Its reputation for glamour and sophistication endures, with Guy LeFèvre’s designs standing as some of its most recognisable contributions to modern decorative arts.
