JEAN DUNAND STYLE LACQUER BENCH

Jean Dunand style lacquer bench. Waterfall shaped bench in green lacquer.

Jean Dunand was a French lacquer, sculptor and interior designer of the Art Deco period. He appropriated in 1912 the secret lacquer techniques of Asia from the Japanese master lacquer artist Seizo Sugawara whom Eileen Gray had studied under. Lacquer is a traditional artistic media in China, Korea and Japan. It is also durable, waterproof and very attractive to feel and look at.

Vosges custom designs and fabricates luxury lacquer furniture. As an illustration, we craft side tables, screens or table tops inspired by Art Deco or Modernist styles.
