This Edge Profile from the early XXth century is typical of the transition period between the Art Nouveau of the “Belle Époque” to the “Art Déco” style which flooded the Parisian Bistrots in the “Années Folles” of the 1920s.
Its more sober lines and less extravagant forms offer a subtle and delightful match with many styles of bar base and furniture.
Its confident air was chosen by “La Petite Maison” restaurant in London, one of the most exclusive addresses in Mayfair, and “Le Petit Saint Benoît”, one of the most genuine bistros of Saint Germain des Prés in Paris.
Counters N°83 and N°63 were restored with this edge profile.
