Description from the seller

Stunning antique architect's table equipped with a parallelogram rule system, typical of professional industrial furniture from architecture studios and design offices in the mid-20th century.

This model features an articulated drawing arm with a graduated head, enabling precise technical drawing. This type of mechanism was used by architects, engineers, and industrial drafters before the era of digital drawing.

The table has a sturdy, functional build, with a large-format work surface suitable for technical plans. It bears a beautiful authentic patina, highly sought after today in industrial-style interiors, artists' studios, or creative spaces.

The drawing system is of the Graphoplex type, a quintessential French brand of professional technical drawing equipment (stylistic identification based on the mechanism).

This piece combines historical value, industrial aesthetics, and functionality, making it as decorative as it is collectible.
