Condition
The underside of this table impressed ASSEMBLAGE 2 No. 6/8 2004 R +E BOUROULLEC. Overall in excellent condition. The work with only very minor nicks and scratches as would be expected with use. Only the table and green floor lamp portion are fixed to the white base. The other elements can be moved. The arrangement as shown in the catalogue illustration is according to the original concept as outlined by the Bouroullecs. The white table is slightly wobbly and would benefit from restoration. The tall green light with a crack and minor loss to the plastic socket. The socket is functional and once the green shade is placed, the socket it hidden by the lower diffuser element of the shade. Otherwise the piece is in superb shape. Piece is sold with a transformer as the electrical is set for European voltage. One of the few Bouroullec Brothers designed works to come to auction.
