Christian Liaigre Tables

French, 1943-2020

In his illustrious career, the French designer Christian Liaigre created furniture and private interiors with a minimalist and restrained sensibility that would become his trademark, but never at the cost of luxury. When he began designing furniture in the 1980s, Liaigre’s clean lines and no-frills approach caused a stir and was considered unusual for the era. But what Liaigre knew best was creating elegant, exquisite designs that would stand the test of time.

Liaigre studied at the École des Beaux-Arts and the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. He initially began as a furniture designer, opening his studio in 1985 before he would move toward interiors. His bold, timeless pieces were made in France using luxurious materials such as marble and cashmere in a soothing palette of neutral tones that look fresh to this day. Later, Liaigre began to design private interiors — from homes of influential figures like Calvin Klein and Karl Lagerfeld to holiday homes, offices and the cabins of private yachts. He designed the interiors of the Art Deco–era Hotel Montalembert in Paris and became known in the United States for his design of the Mercer Hotel in New York City, which opened in 1997. Soon afterward, he found himself working for hotelier Ian Schrager.

To each of his interior design projects Liaigre brought his minimalist touch, which was born from his ability to distill a broad range of inspirations — from Brancusi sculptures and African art to Art Deco furniture — into simple, balanced forms. The modest beauty of his popular Nagato stool, a small and sculptural piece of seating designed in oak in 1986, represents this vision clearly and points to some more of Liaigre’s influences: the stillness found in Donald Judd’s minimalist art and many aspects of Japanese culture.

Liaigre, who earned comparisons to celebrated French designers Jean-Michel Frank and Jean Royère, was also known for his visionary use of natural and unconventional materials and is considered to be one of the first to use wenge, an African hardwood, in combination with traditional timber such as oak in his furnishings. Liaigre’s creative foresight has ensured that today he is one of the most influential and widely imitated designers of the 20th century.

Antique Large Restored Indonesian Teak Coffee Table with Three Drawers, Java
Antique Large Restored Indonesian Teak Coffee Table with Three Drawers, Java

Antique Large Restored Indonesian Teak Coffee Table with Three Drawers, Java

Located in Casteren, NL

This impressive teak coffee table was crafted on the island of Java, Indonesia, during the first half of the 20th century and originally formed part of the interior of a tobacco or cigar company. Tables of this type were commonly used in offices and reception areas of plantations and trading houses, where durability and refined appearance were equally important. Measuring an impressive approximately 76" wide by 39" deep (193 x 100 cm), this substantial table makes a striking centerpiece in both traditional and contemporary interiors. The design is distinguished by its beautifully paneled top, framed with mitered corners that lend the piece a sophisticated architectural character. Its rich dark brown finish accentuates the expressive grain patterns of the solid teak, showcasing the natural movement, growth rings, and subtle variations that make teak such a highly prized wood species. The front is fitted with three generously sized drawers, each retaining its original metal ring pull. These drawers provide practical storage while contributing to the table's balanced and symmetrical design. The subtly tapered legs lend an elegant touch and create a pleasing contrast to the table's substantial proportions. During restoration, the table was carefully sandblasted to remove accumulated finishes and impurities while preserving the character and texture of the wood. It was then professionally refinished in a deep custom-toned dark brown color and sealed with a durable satin-matte finish. This treatment enhances the warmth and depth of the teak while allowing the natural texture and authentic patina to remain clearly visible. What makes this table particularly desirable is the combination of its exceptional size, beautifully executed paneled top, and the presence of three functional drawers. The deep brown finish gives the piece a distinguished and almost architectural presence, while the clean lines and restrained design allow it to integrate effortlessly into a variety of interiors, from colonial and rustic settings to modern and minimalist spaces. A remarkably handsome and unusually large Indonesian...
