French design takes center stage with Maria Pergay's "Coup de Cœur" bed (page ??) and a number of pieces by Jean Prouvé, including the 1951 "S.A.M Tropique" table, no. 503, with a rectangular lacquered aluminum top on four airplane-wing legs. This rare piece is priced between €60,000 and €80,000. Also by the same designer, a desk known as "Compas courbe" (€22,000/25,000) and a chair model no. 305 known as "Métropole" (€12,000/15,000). International designers will be represented by Shiro Kuramata, author of the "How High the Moon" armchair in nickel-plated steel mesh, of which two examples will be offered (€11,000/13,000 each).
