Adjustable Table E 1027
Made by Classicon
Designed by Eileen Gray
Eileen Gray conceived the E 1027 table in the late 1920s as a companion to the body, not merely to the room. Its cantilevered tubular steel base slides beneath a sofa or bed, and a key-lock mechanism holds the circular top at any chosen height. The gesture is quietly radical: furniture that adapts to the person, not the other way around.
The design emerged from Gray's Villa E 1027 on the French Riviera, a building she treated as a total work of art. The table was never incidental to that vision. It was conceived to function with the precision of a tool and carry the presence of a sculpture.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who designed the E 1027 table and when?
Eileen Gray designed the E 1027 table in the late 1920s for her Villa E 1027 on the French Riviera. The table's name mirrors the villa's own alphanumeric title, encoding the initials of Gray and her collaborator Jean Badovici.
How does the height adjustment mechanism work?
A key-lock mechanism within the tubular steel column allows the circular top to be raised or lowered and fixed at any desired position. The system requires no tools beyond the integrated key, making adjustment fluid and precise.
Is the Classicon E 1027 an authorized reissue?
Yes. Classicon produces the E 1027 table under license from Aram Designs Ltd of London, the world license holder for Eileen Gray's designs. This ensures fidelity to the original specifications and materials.
What top finishes are available for the E 1027 table?
The table is offered with a circular top in either clear glass or a lacquered finish. Each option preserves the original proportions Gray specified while allowing the piece to read differently within a given interior.
How is the E 1027 table typically used by designers?
Its cantilevered base is designed to slide beneath a bed or sofa, positioning the top directly over the user. Architects and interior designers frequently specify it as a bedside or occasional table where spatial efficiency and formal elegance are equally weighted.
