About the Item
This rare and exceptional pair of mahogany and marble console tables, attributed to Maison Jansen, is the kind of furniture that doesn’t raise its voice—because it doesn’t have to. These tables have already been everywhere that mattered. They’ve seen rooms with tall ceilings, quiet conversations, and people who understood that real elegance rarely announces itself.
At first glance, the design feels almost disarmingly simple. Slender proportions, clean lines, and perfectly judged restraint. Then you look again. The mahogany veneers are deep, rich, and beautifully finished, with a warmth that only comes from quality wood handled by people who knew exactly what they were doing. The grain catches the light subtly, never shouting, just nodding politely in your direction.
The marble tops sit crisply above the cases, pale and refined, providing a cool counterpoint to the warmth of the wood. They’re shaped with gentle curves at the corners—enough softness to keep things from feeling severe, but not so much that they drift into ornament for ornament’s sake. The fit is precise, which tells you everything you need to know about the level of craftsmanship involved.
Each table features a single drawer with understated brass hardware, because Maison Jansen understood that sometimes one good drawer is better than six mediocre ones. Below, a lower shelf adds practicality and visual balance, tying the whole form together without weighing it down. The legs are slender and confident, tapering neatly to brass-capped feet that feel more like punctuation than decoration.
Now, about the name behind them.
Maison Jansen, founded in Paris in 1880, was not a furniture maker in the traditional sense—it was something bigger. Maison Jansen became one of the most influential interior design firms of the 20th century, decorating palaces, embassies, private estates, and homes of people who didn’t like mistakes. Their clients included European royalty, industrial titans, and later, American high society. When Jansen furnished a room, it wasn’t about trends. It was about timelessness.
The firm specialized in blending historical styles with modern restraint, producing interiors—and furnishings—that felt simultaneously classical and current. Furniture attributed to Maison Jansen often reflects this philosophy: beautifully made, architecturally balanced, and never overworked.
This pair of console tables fits squarely within that tradition. They’re adaptable, versatile, and quietly luxurious. Use them flanking a doorway, beneath mirrors, or as refined side tables in a living room or hall. They don’t demand symmetry—but they reward it.
What makes this pair special isn’t just their rarity or attribution. It’s the way they behave. They don’t compete with the room. They complete it. And that, in the end, is what Maison Jansen always did best—creating pieces that knew exactly when to step forward, and when to let everything else shine.
