Provenance :
- Between 1957 and 1961 Mr. & Mrs R. asked Jean-René Prou to decorate their appartment in Neuilly-sur-Seine.
This latter asked several designers to create unique and original pieces for this interior, as this side- board. A pair of low chairs by Gilbert Poillerat,
as well as an exceptional desk by Jean-René Prou, were part of this set-up, but also a fireplace designed by Vera Szekely and some lights by Gino Sarfatti.
