"Jacques Bodart" Dining Table
Jacques Bodart was a French designer and maker of very high quality furniture that was produced in the U.S. He took his inspiration primarily from antique French pieces and interpreted them in a way that was appropriate for the period. Bodart designed and produced from the 1920's through the mid 20th century, and showed in Harvey Nichols in London, their own showroom on Madison Avenue in New York, as well as other fine retailers. This dining table, which is signed on the table and each leaf, is 57" l., 44" w. and 30" h. It has three leaves, each of which is 18" wide. With all leaves in, the length is 111".
