French T55 Rectangular Cafe Table from Tolix, 1950s

About This Piece

Vintage Design

1950’s Original French T55 Tolix Rectangular Cafe – Kitchen – Dining Table – Chrome Leg ( Model 1). Tolix is one of our all time favourite companies. In 1907 Frenchman Xavier Pauchard discovered that he could protect sheet metal from rusting by dipping it in molten zinc (galvanisation) and a few years later he set up his factory producing steel furniture. Tolix was the creator and founder of perhaps the most iconic cafe chair of all time, the Tolix model A, designed in 1934 and sadly now copied worldwide. Tolix used their metalworking skill to also produce exquisitely designed but practical cafe/dining table to partner their chairs. This Tolix model features folded sheet steel legs with a very subtly patterned laminate top. The table is in exceptional original condition throughout. Knee Clearance Heights: 69cm
