Mexique Coffee Table

Made by Cassina

Designed by Charlotte Perriand

In 1952, Charlotte Perriand traveled to Mexico as an advisor on craft and industrial production. The work she produced there carried the weight of that exchange: forms shaped by artisan tradition and sharpened by modernist discipline. The Mexique Coffee Table is one of those works.

Reissued by Cassina within its I Maestri collection, the table arrives in two expressions. The first pairs a solid American walnut top with a matt black lacquered steel base, the warmth of the grain held in precise tension with the geometry of the metal. The second, finished in Glossy Petroleo, deepens the surface into a rich lacquer while preserving the same architectural clarity of form.

Perriand never treated materials as ornament. The contrast here is considered, even structural: two sensibilities, one resolved object.

Frequently Asked Questions

When and where did Charlotte Perriand design the Mexique table?

Perriand designed the Mexique table in 1952 during her advisory role to the Mexican government on craft and industrial production. The cultural context of that assignment is reflected in the table's dialogue between artisan form and modernist geometry.

What is the Cassina I Maestri collection?

I Maestri is Cassina's program dedicated to reissuing furniture designed by architects and designers of historical significance, including Le Corbusier, Gerrit Rietveld, and Charlotte Perriand. Each piece is produced under strict adherence to the original designer's specifications.

What materials are used in the Mexique Coffee Table?

The table is available with a solid American walnut top paired with a matt black lacquered steel base, or in a Glossy Petroleo lacquered finish. Both versions share the same base structure and proportions.

Is the Mexique table suitable for contract or commercial interiors?

Given its reissue under Cassina's I Maestri program and its considered construction, the Mexique table is appropriate for residential and contract settings alike. Specifiers should consult technical documentation for precise load and finish durability details.

How does the Mexique table relate to Perriand's broader body of work?

The Mexique table sits within Perriand's sustained investigation of how materials, culture, and function could be reconciled in a single object. Her work in Mexico drew on local craft knowledge alongside the European modernist vocabulary she developed alongside Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret.
