A lacquered chest of drawers 1920<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

To mark the centenary of Art Deco<\/strong>, Moissonnier is honoring its 1920 lacquered chest of drawers, inspired by a model signed Paul Follot<\/strong>, one of the “inventors” of this emblematic movement. An Art Deco rarity in the collection<\/strong>, this piece combines luxury, innovation and craftsmanship<\/strong>, embodying the daring spirit of these particularly creative years.<\/p>\n\n

French cabinetmaker and decorator Paul Follot<\/strong> is considered one of the founding fathers of Art Deco<\/strong>. His creations, marked by geometric lines, stylized floral motifs and ostentatious luxury<\/strong>, had a profound influence on 20th-century design. The original chest of drawers<\/strong>, designed for his Paris apartment, features an imposing central floral motif<\/strong>, a symbol of an era when art and industry interacted to create unique pieces. <\/p>\n\n
