lou perou table
by Eileen Gray, from Classicon
lou perou table
Design Eileen Gray, 1932
Chromium-plated steel tubing, MDF
Made in Germany by Classicon
Like the majority of Eileen Gray's tables, this one too can transform itself. And, as always, she found an unexpected solution. The folding section of the tabletop is supported by a single leg out of chromed steel tubing - a conscious break in the otherwise perfect symmetry of the table. It is named after Eileen Gray's last home, Lou Perou, that she built at the age of 76 above St. Tropez. The name itself is in memory of a trip to Peru in the year 1929.
In the 1920's and 30's, Irish artist Eileen Gray was one of the pioneers who created what we now call modern design. The lone woman in this pioneering Valhalla, her name is pronounced in the same breath as Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe and Marcel Breuer. Her tubular steel furniture was revolutionary in its day, and is now accepted as classic. In the second stage of her creative career, Eileen Gray switched to architecture and continued producing masterpieces. She was an artist of epoch-making significance. Her career culminated in 1972 with her appointment by the Royal Society of Art in London, as Royal Designer to Industry. And her legendary Adjustable Table E 1027 has been added to the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York, in 1978.
Authorised by The World Licence Holder Aram Designs Ltd, London. Lou Perou features a chromium-plated steel tube frame. The table-top is made of MDF with high-gloss lacquer in your choice of black or white. Part of the table-top can be lifted up to extend the table.
27.6" h | 25.6" d | 51.2" w | extended: 76.8" w | assembly required

Eileen Gray
In the 1920's and 30's, Irish artist Eileen Gray was one of the pioneers who created what we now call modern design. The lone woman amongst her peers, her name is spoken in the same breath as Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe, and Marcel Breuer. Her tubular steel furniture was revolutionary in its day, and is now accepted as classic. In the second stage of her creative career, Eileen Gray switched to architecture and continued producing masterpieces. Her career culminated in 1972 with her appointment by the Royal Society of Art in London, as Royal Designer to Industry. Her legendary Adjustable Table E 1027 was added to the MoMA’s permanent collection in 1978.
The German company ClassiCon began by making the works of Eileen Gray available for sale. Gray was a contemporary of Marcel Breuer and Mies van der Rohe who created furniture from chrome, tubular steel, and glass. She is known for avant-garde classics such as the "Monte Carlo" sofa and the "e1027" adjustable table. ClassiCon also worked early on with designer Eckart Muthesius, and continues to find young designers whose work meets their high standard of quality, such as Konstantin Grcic, to foster collaboration while introducing their work to the marketplace. While maintaining the early Modern classics that gave them their start, ClassiCon also believes in creating the classics of tomorrow.
