Pair of carved wood armchairs, Galeries Lafayette “Atelier de la Maîtrise,” 1940s – I373

Our entire 20th-century collection consists of vintage and original pieces.

Our items are inspected and checked in our workshops. However, we make it a point of honor to preserve the character and authenticity of the furniture and lighting fixtures. For this reason, we deliberately retain the patina that comes with age: the pieces may show signs of use, color variations, wear and tear, traces of oxidation, etc. These marks are a testament to their authenticity and do not constitute defects.

The condition of each item is described in detail, and any major defects are photographed.

The items are highlighted using studio lighting; we strive to reproduce the original colors as accurately as possible, though slight variations may occur. Regarding the light fixtures, the wiring is original unless otherwise noted; we recommend having a qualified electrician inspect them in accordance with your country’s safety standards.

If you have any questions or would like more information, please feel free to contact us before making your purchase.
