1967 Herman Miller Girard Group Table – Original Launch Piece in Bruno Scuro Marble
The Table That Launched an Icon
This is not simply a Herman Miller table — it is the table. This extraordinary piece is the original example used by Herman Miller & chosen by Girard personally in their 1967 launch brochures and marketing photography for the Girard Group collection, as seen in the period images. There is no closer connection to the source than this.
The Girard Group, 1967
Designed under the creative direction of Alexander Girard — one of the most celebrated figures in mid-century American design — the Girard Group for Herman Miller represented a bold fusion of craft, colour, and modernist sensibility. Girard's influence on Herman Miller's design language was profound, and pieces from this collection are among the most sought-after in the canon of 20th-century furniture.
Bruno Scuro Marble — A Rare Choice
The table top is finished in Bruno Scuro marble, one of the rarer and more distinguished stones selected for this collection. Deep, warm, and richly veined, Bruno Scuro carries a quiet authority — a material that rewards close inspection and ages with extraordinary grace. Its combination of elegance and versatility made it the ideal surface for Girard's vision, and it remains a compelling choice for serious collectors and interior connoisseurs alike.

Provenance
Provenance of this calibre is exceptionally rare in the vintage furniture market. This piece can be directly traced to Herman Miller's own 1967 marketing production — making it a document of design history as much as a functional object. For the collector who demands not just quality but story, this table is without equal.
An original 1967 Girard Group pull out poster brochure is included with the table.
