Vitra EM Dining Table
Manufacturer: Vitra | Designer: Jean Prouvé, 1950
Structure Made Visible
Jean Prouvé developed the EM Table — Entretoise Métallique, or metal struts — around 1950 for the Maison Tropicale project. The name describes the construction: canted legs connected by a crossbar, the structural forces made visible rather than concealed. Every detail follows from the engineering logic, not from decoration.
The top is 34mm thick and available in solid wood (natural oak oiled, dark oak with hard-wax oil finish, or American walnut oiled) or oak veneer with protective varnish. The base is bent sheet steel and tubular steel, powder-coated, available in two colour groups.
