Spotlight on the Guéridon haut by Jean Prouvé

The Guéridon Haut, designed by JEAN PROUVÉ around 1941, features an oak veneer tabletop supported by three obliquely positioned triangular legs, connected by a three-branched tubular stretcher. The structure is secured with metal brackets screwed into the wood.

Created during the war, this now-iconic model follows the same leg principle as the S.A.M. dining table, developed simultaneously by Ateliers Jean Prouvé. Unlike versions with a metal base, this one stands out with a wooden structure, showcasing Jean Prouvé’s ingenuity and his ability to adapt to material shortages, particularly steel, under the extreme conditions of the war.

Pairing perfectly with the Métropole no. 305 chairs, the harmony of its proportions and the ideal diameter of its tabletop make this pedestal table easy to fit in any space.
