MODERN LUXURY
For this new edition, the focus is on luxury as reinvented by 20th-century French decorative arts.
A modern luxury that embraces a repertoire of refined forms, enhanced by highly sophisticated materials and techniques.
In this spirit, designers such as Jean-Michel Frank, Jean Royère, Jean Dunand, Eugène Printz, Clément Rousseau, Elizabeth Eyre de Lanux, Diego Giacometti, and Alexandre Noll contribute to this revival and highlight craftsmanship rooted in the history of fine cabinetmaking: straw marquetry, bronze, lacquer, metalwork, and surfaces covered in shagreen or parchment.
The exceptional backdrop of the gallery’s booth is the full set of straw marquetry paneling created in 1929 by Jean-Michel Frank for the music room of Princess de Polignac, restored by the Ateliers Lison de Caunes in Paris, is presented in partnership with Féau Boiseries.
