Our Objective
The gallery showcases exceptional creations by
craftsmen of unparalleled skills. These pieces
create a way of rediscovering the luxurious
approach from the masters of the 1930s, 1940s
and 1950s, such as Jean- Michel Franck and
Jacques Quinet. This original and sensitive
approach will suit those who seek to create a
unique atmosphere, in the spirit of a collector, far
from industrialised, with these bespoke designs.
