Full-Cataloguing
The present tables are rare examples from T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings's first line of furniture, "Sans Époque." This small collection is contemporary to his famous commission for the interior design of the Casa Encantada in Bel Air, California and reflects his concept of classically-derived forms that are "neither antique nor modern."
