Roger Capron Low Coffee Table — Vallauris, France, c. 1960s–70s

A rare and highly collectible piece of French mid-century design, this low coffee table by Roger Capron showcases the master ceramicist’s signature style, blending artistry with function.

The tiled surface features warm terracotta tones decorated with Capron’s iconic botanical imprints — each tile pressed with natural leaves to create a delicate fossil-like impression. Set within a clean rectangular form, the low height makes this an ideal centrepiece for a lounge, allowing the surface artwork to be admired from every angle.

Capron (1922–2006) established his ceramics workshop in Vallauris, France, in the late 1940s, and by the 1960s had become internationally acclaimed for his innovative use of glazed tiles in furniture. His coffee tables remain sought after by collectors and design enthusiasts worldwide.
