  • A revolutionary artist, photographer and designer, Meret Oppenheim defined the peak of Surrealism and Dada mastery during the 20th century.

    Meret Oppenheim (1913–1985) was a Swiss artist and designer renowned for her contributions to the Surrealist movement. While best known for her iconic Object (Le Déjeuner en fourrure)—a fur-covered teacup that challenged notions of functionality and materiality—Oppenheim also made significant strides in furniture design.

    Her work in this realm blended surrealist aesthetics with practical design, often incorporating unexpected materials and organic forms. Notable pieces include the Traccia table, which features delicate bird legs supporting an oval-shaped tabletop, and the Giocometti table, with its fluid and sculptural lines. Through her innovative approach, Oppenheim redefined the relationship between art and everyday objects, influencing generations of designers who sought to merge functionality with artistic expression.
