Eileen Gray managed to hold her own among designers such as Mies van der Rohe, Le Corbusier and Marcel Breuer.
She designed the Adjustable Table E 1027 for her villa on the Côte d'Azur
The E1027 adjustable table is one of Eileen Gray's tubular steel furniture designs, revolutionary at the time, that have become true classics.
Her designs, like the side table, were very revolutionary for that time.
The table was originally designed because Eileen Gray wanted a table that she could put her feet under and that she could also use the table as a bedside table.
It's absolutely timeless!
You can easily adjust the height of this side table with its distinctive shape. The adjustable table is named after the summer house E 1027 "Maison en bord de mer" that Eileen Gray built for herself and for her collaborator Jean Badovici. In the secret code name, E stands for Eileen, 10 for Jean (J is the 10th letter of the alphabet), 2 for B(adovici) and 7 for G(ray).
After all these years, the steel side table has become an unmistakable icon and is still relevant in today's interior.
In 1978 this side table was included in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
