ANDRÉ SORNAY (1902–2000) Dotted inlay, a unique commissioned work originally part of a major decorative project by the artist created in the 1930s for an apartment in Lyon An exceptional and substantial convertible dining table—which can also serve as a console table or display table. The top consists of a removable circular tabletop and a very large rectangular tabletop with two folding flaps, entirely constructed of sapelli-veneered sandwich panels featuring studded patterns. The stud patterns form three concentric circles on the circular top and continuous lines along the edges and at the centers of the folding panels and the central section. The long, narrow, box-shaped quadrangular base, (re)painted white, rests at one end on a circular base and features, at the other end, two hinged vertical panels designed to support the flaps once they are raised horizontally. The underside is equipped with an electrical outlet and a service bell button. Shows signs of use, with some damage and missing parts; the base has been repainted white. Cold-stamped with “SORNAY France Étranger Breveté” beneath the central band of the long rectangular tabletop. Height: 75 cm – Length: 240 cm – Width: 105 cm
