SCLgram -- Design Fact -- Demi-Lune



Traditional style

Demi-Lune is a French term and literally means "half moon".  In the world of interior design, Demi-Lune is also a term used to describe a category of small, delicate tables that look like a round table cut in half.  The back is flat so it can fit snugly against a wall, while the front is round.  Demi-Lune tables are versatile and have stood the test of time on their beautifully tapered legs.
