About the Item

Twin columns of twisted gilt wood form the vertical borders of this gracefully symmetrical, black lacquered, double door cabinet. Provenance: In 1965 Maison Jansen decorated a Paris apartment in the 8th arrondissement, and when the clients retired to Nice they took the furnishings with them. Bibliography: La Maison Française, 1978. Similar model of cabinet in an advertisement for Jansen collections page 158. For the better part of a century, Maison Jansen was major force in French design and decor. The firm’s work was celebrated at every defining show of the early 20th Century, from the 1900 Paris Exposition Universelle to the 1925 Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts in Pairs and New York’s World’s Fair in 1938. What's more, its offices executed some of the most elegant post-war interiors across four continents—those of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, C. Z. Guest, and Jacqueline Kennedy Onasis, to name but a few.
