Everyone's favourite cocktail table

In 1961, Yve Klein created two unfinished cocktail table prototypes. Two years later, his widow started producing the patented acrylic tables. Made from a blue pigment and a binding medium, Klein developed the “International Klein Blue” (IKB) and around 44 pounds of it are used in his Table Bleue.

Table Bleue

The table is available in the three materials: IKB and rose pigment and gold leaf.  The number of tables produced each year is limited but no more than approximately 40-60 tables are created yearly.

The table comes in one size and customization is not possible. The sides and base of the table are plexiglass but the top is a more durable glass making it a functional and easily maintained table. The tables are shiped directly from Klein’s Parisian estate and must be installed immediately upon arrival.
