Pierre Jeanneret Library Table, Panjab Agricultural University, c. 1960

Designed by Pierre Jeanneret for the Main Sciences Library at Panjab Agricultural University, this library table retains its original institutional stencil, PAU/PB/M.S.LIB/178/III, intact after more than sixty years of library use. Constructed entirely in solid teak, the table features a large rectangular top supported by two solid panel legs. The panel legs retain hand-scratched inscriptions added by students and library users over many years. The teak has developed a deep, warm patina consistent with its age and origin.
