Iconic Roger Capron Coffee Table in Ceramic with Floral Motif
Iconic coffee table designed by Roger Capron. It features a vibrant motif of a flower created by differently colored fragments. A variation in color and textured surfaces combines into an admirable tabletop. The circular blossom is made of many lines of cone-shaped pieces that range in color from dark brown, green, to beige and white. Two stylized leaves at next to the stem of the flower create a strong symmetry. Yet, the tiles that Capron used to shape the leaves, are not the same. The background in beige tiles in different shades, strengthens the expression of the floral motif. The designer signed his piece on the tabletop.
