This is the first comprehensive inventory of the famed French furniture designer Maria Pergay's work. Pergay, who began her career making silver things, is most known for her stainless steel work. She discovered this material in 1968 with the now-iconic Flying Carpet daybed, and she continues to explore and reinvent it with her distinct vision. Her dependably exquisite and inventive designs have elevated her to international prominence.
This overview of Pergay's work, compiled with her assistance, spans over 50 years of creation and includes thorough descriptions and pictures of over 300 pieces, many of which have never been published before.
