Bruno Foucart and Jean-Louis Gaillemin, Les Décorateurs des Années 40, Paris, 1998, p. 149

Overall good condition consistent with age and use. When viewed in person, the table presents with a richer, more amber tone than in the catalogue illustration. The wood surfaces with scattered surface scratches and abrasions concentrated to the feet. One foot with two small restorations, neither measuring more than approximately 1 inch wide. A sculptural table with great presence.
