    My neighbor is cleaning out his attic, and when I saw this table I just said 'WOW'. This is the largest of the 3, about 18" tall, coffee table size. They are all in great condition. His family had them for at least 40 years.

    Marked and signed on the back...I can't make out the signature but I can check the other tiles later and see if there is a better one.
    You can't see the frame very well, but it's hand wrought. The tiles on this table are in 3 sections.

    I checked a few sites including 1st dibs, but no luck. Can't bring up anything like it on search, either. Also posted on ebay's MCM forum, but no answers there.

    Any help or suggestions to id these tables would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

      These are fantastic! Definitely good stuff. Try and get a picture of a clearer signature. Love these!
    2. cartoongirl cartoongirl, 12 years ago
      I know! Right? I literally stopped dead in my tracks when I saw it! I'll take other pics when he's got a spare minute...by the end of the week for sure.

      The first letter on the sig looks like a 'C'.
    3. AmberRose AmberRose, 12 years ago
      Absolutely. I will send a link to a MCM furniture friend of mine to see what he says. I am in love with these. It's the orange, I'm a sucker for orange.

      Could it be Capron Vallauris?
      He did some work for Saks.
      Chambost, Ruelland, Jouve, Deblander, Mado Jolain and René Legrand are some other names.

      Hi! Thank you, Bellin68, for emailing to Wright auctions! I was looking at some past catalogs on there...could spend hours there!

      I was thinking cl or ch, also. I will search later. I did check out Chambost, thanks!, but not the same style from what I could find.

      I emailed Saks this morning with the pics.

      Hi! No definite id...Saks never got back me.
