Overall in good condition. One of Guy de Rougemont’s most celebrated designs, the present “Nuage” coffee table executed in 2012 includes a lighting system on the underside complementing its functional form. The stainless steel surfaces present with light scratches throughout consistent with gentle use. The recessed areas with light corrosion and oxidation to the steel consistent with age and not visually distracting.
