Jean Michel Frank Sectional


We make a lot of Jean Michel Frank sofas – they’re our most popular style; but not as many JMF Sectional Sofas, so we’re especially happy to share this one!


All of the beautiful lines that made this style famous, coupled with extra seating – what’s not to love about that?


The seat & back cushions are down-filled, and the fabric is a beautiful low pile silk velvet.


Instead of the traditional tapered legs, we gave this sectional a dark recessed base. We love customizing pieces in this way, and a recessed base always gives the impression that the sofa is floating above the floor.


 A single top stitch was used throughout for a beautifully tailored & sophisticated look.

Art Deco Desk Chair inspired by Paul Dupre Lafon



Here is another version of one of our most popular pieces, the Art Deco Desk Chair, inspired by notable French architect & designer, Paul Dupre Lafon. It’s easy to see why it is a frequently requested chair; it’s so easy to customize. Each different combination of wood, finish & upholstery completely transforms the style and tone this chair has in its’ environment. It is also a beautiful example of Dupre Lafon’s style, with the slightly inclined flat back and visible fixing screws.


In this version, we upholstered it in a beautiful smooth leather. The oak frame was finished with a light ceruse finish, utilizing the beauty of the wood grain as a design detail. Smaller details include the bronze exposed screws.
