Domande Frequenti

When and why did Jean Prouvé design the Gueridon Table?

Prouvé designed the Gueridon Table in 1949 as part of a commission for the University of Paris. The brief called for durable, honestly constructed furniture, and Prouvé responded with a form that used solid wood structurally rather than decoratively, braced by a bent sheet metal element.

What materials are used in the Vitra Gueridon Table?

The top and legs are solid wood, available in a natural oak oiled finish. The connecting cross-brace is bent sheet metal finished in a deep black powder coat, a combination that reflects Prouvé's practice of pairing natural and industrial materials within a single object.

How does the Gueridon Table differ from Prouvé's other furniture designs?

Where many of Prouvé's pieces lean heavily on welded steel, the Gueridon Table places wood at the center of its structure. The sheet metal element appears as a brace rather than a primary frame, making this one of the warmer and more domestic expressions of his architectural approach.

Is the Vitra Gueridon Table appropriate for a dining room setting?

Yes. The round top and three-leg base make it well-suited to intimate dining, and the oiled oak surface is durable enough for daily use. Its proportions work in both residential and studio or office environments.

Who manufactures the Gueridon Table today, and is it an authorized reproduction?

The table is produced by Vitra, which holds the license to manufacture Jean Prouvé's designs in close collaboration with the Prouvé estate. Each piece is produced according to original drawings and material specifications.
