Gilt metal fittings to the drawer as well as the corners and edges. Cigar dispensers such as this one were popular in Europe during the 19th century but as cigar smoking was much rarer in Japan during this time, it is very likely that this piece was made for export.

A ZIGZAG COFFEE TABLEBY PIERRE GIRAUDON (B. 1923)Crackled resin top on a nickel plated zigzag base49cm high, 200cm wide, 60cm deepCatalogue Note: Pierre Giraudon was born in 1923. After a stay in Canada, he returned to France in 1949 and introduced the technique of resin inclusion casting. He was a well-known biologist and was the first to use products he invented specially for the purpose to encase plants, animals, and other subjects in resin for universities. During the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s, he made sculptures, lamp bases, and objects out of colored resin, with and without inclusions. At the same time he was making these personal creations, he was also working for César. Yet he always declined to be called an artist, because he considered himself first and foremost a biologist. Condition Report: Top with some minor scratches and abrasions. The base with some very minor knocks. Some minor attention may be required to some joints of the base. Condition Report Disclaimer
