Console Art Déco à un seul pied, fer battu et marbre rosé

Un seul pied porte le plateau, et c'est une crosse : une large bande de fer qui descend en S, ajourée de lames parallèles, s'enroule en volute sous le marbre et se referme en rouleau au pied, sur deux boules posées sur un dé de pierre claire. Le métal, poli jusqu'à l'éclat de l'acier, garde les traces du marteau et quelques piqûres sombres. Le plateau, d'un marbre ocre rosé veiné de saumon, dessine une façade galbée à ressauts latéraux. La profondeur réduite en fait un meuble de mur.

Edgar Brandt, de 1880 à 1960, est le maître de la ferronnerie d'art Art déco : ses consoles associent un fer à volutes ou à décor géométrique à un plateau de marbre, et il inaugure le 10 décembre 1925 sa galerie du 27 boulevard Malesherbes, à Paris. Cette même année, l'Exposition internationale des arts décoratifs et industriels modernes donne au style son nom. Des consoles de fer martelé circulent aussi comme dans le goût de Brandt ; rien, pour celle-ci, ne désigne un atelier ou un ferronnier.

A single leg carries the top, and it is a crook: a broad band of iron that descends in an S, opened by parallel blades, curls into a volute beneath the marble and closes in a roll at the foot, on two balls set on a block of pale stone. The metal, polished to the brightness of steel, keeps the marks of the hammer and a few dark pits. The top, in an ochre-pink marble veined with salmon, draws a curved front with stepped sides. Its shallow depth makes it a piece for the wall.

Edgar Brandt, 1880 to 1960, was the master of Art Deco art ironwork: his consoles pair scrolling or geometric iron with a marble top, and on 10 December 1925 he opened his gallery at 27 boulevard Malesherbes in Paris. That same year, the Exposition internationale des arts décoratifs et industriels modernes gave the style its name. Consoles in hammered iron also circulate as in the taste of Brandt; nothing, for this one, points to a workshop or an ironworker.
