Editions AAM, Paris. 2025 Provenance: The collection of Mo Amelia Teitelbaum Mo is a collector, researcher and author who specialises in the period that Jean-Michel Frank spent in the South Americas. She has dedicated much of her life to researching this once forgotten and underappreciated time in Frank's period of creativity. It was in Argentina that his friendship with the Chillian patron, collector and muse Eugenia Errazuriz deepened and he met Ignacio Pirovano, the man he would go on to found COMTE with. Mo has penned two fascinating books on this period of Frank's life; The Stylemakers, Minimalism and Classic Modernism 1915-1945 and Jean-Michel Frank, Une Aventure Sud-Am?ricaine. Both much lauded by Jean-Michel Frank collectors and enthusiasts of this period of Design and Modernism. Chiswick Auctions would like to thank the Mo for allowing us to present the current work to auction, we feel privileged to have the opportunity to offer such a rare and important piece of Jean-Michel Frank's design history. Notes: This nest of tables are to a Jean-Michel Frank design, interpreted and made by COMTE for Felisa Naon de Santamarina, whose interiors were decorated and furnished by Jean-Michel Frank himself
