Vosges has been freely inspired by a Jean-Michel Frank design to create this great Art Deco style piece of furniture.
Born in 1895, Jean-Michel Frank was a French Art Deco interior designer. He created sumptuous furniture made of luxury materials, such as shagreen, mica, and intricate straw marquetry. Frank created a unique collection of home furnishing for Hermès in the 1920s. Leading designers recognize today Frank as one of the greatest sources of inspiration to many present-day designs.
