Jean, named after Eileen Gray‘s intimate friend of many years, the architect Jean Badovici, stood in various models in their summer villa E 1027. "Every room has at its disposal one of these tables", wrote Eileen Gray, "that at the same time can serve as a desk. For entertaining one moves all the pieces together, unfolds them and what follows is a small dining table, light yet absolutely stable." There is nothing more to say.
Jean doubles its size with a twist of the hand – an excellent example of Eileen Gray’s sense of practicality.
