A chair with a story...
Napoleon III armchair in for a full reupholstery. I love when you discover an original label from the maker, here Monsieur Chatret. Although it mentions Chateauroux, the label has an address in Le Marais, Paris, so Mr Chatret might be the client. At this address, 35 rue des Francs Bourgeois, is the Hotel de Coulanges built in 1607. The fabric chosen for this chair is just stunning, an amazing print on velvet by Osborne&Little...
