Menton Table
Eileen Gray did not want delicate luxury furniture for her house in Castellar, on the way from Menton to the Alps, but instead versatile pieces for every day use. She succeeded with Menton in one of her most ingenious constructions. Through a simple rotation of the top one has either a low or a high table as desired. Eileen Gray used Menton in the high position as a dining table, in the low position as a side table on the terrace and also as a coffee table in the guest room.

ClassiCon
ClassiCon offer modern classics that are collector’s items—not only the masterpieces of yesterday, but of tomorrow as well. ClassiCon’s collection aims to produce individual pieces of great originality and formal perfection. Displaying the kind of value that lasts, ClassiCon collection pieces are destined to become coveted investments for future generations. ClassiCon has from its inception aspired not only to offer pieces by established figures such as Eileen Gray and Eckart Muthesius, but also to foster contemporary design and to present selected examples in its program. Naturally, the models chosen must display the kind of quality and advanced form that earns them the designation “classic”. That’s why ClassiCon is always open to new design ideas.
Eileen Gray
From an aristocratic Irish-Scottish family, Eileen Gray studied architecture and design in London and Paris and first made her name with lacquered walls and decorative panels. Her theories on design and architecture left an indelible mark on modernism, her tubular steel furniture, revolutionary in its day, is now classic, and her house E1027 on the Côte d’Azur reopened to the public in 2015.
ClassiCon produces her designs under licence, among them the height-adjustable Adjustable Table E1027, in MoMA’s permanent collection since 1978, the Bibendum Armchair and the Day Bed.
