Rope Lamp by Audoux Minnet, 1960's
About the Item
The absence of an Audoux-Minnet catalog means that we have only partial knowledge of their production. We do know, however, that it was certainly during their honeymoon that Adrien Audoux, originally from Franche-Comté, and Frida Minnet, originally from Switzerland, decided to set up their business in Cannes in 1929.
Frida Minnet's father was himself a rattan furniture manufacturer in Montreux, where his store was located. He was invaluable in helping the young couple set up shop, producing mainly rattan furniture. In 1942, the company moved to Golfe-Juan, not far from Vallauris, where Jean Bonaudi also produced rattan furniture. Here, customers from La Rievera, made up of wealthy Britons and Americans attracted by "French taste", bought their furniture. In the '50s, the company, better known as "le Doux Minet" and taking a black kitten as its symbol, invented a new style of furniture that would make their reputation. The frame, often in oak or beech, is entirely covered in raffia. The seats are then covered with raffia made of checkerboard or coarse-mesh braided mats. Audoux-Minnet's flagship armchair, whose beech legs form a single unit with the armrests, was manufactured by the Vibo company in Vesoul. Audoux-Minnet furniture bears an oblong plate on the crosspieces indicating either "Fabrique de meubles Audoux-Minnet - Golf-Juan" or "Meubles Audoux-Minne".
It's interesting to note that Maison Audoux-Minnet had no dealers, and only their Golfe-Juan outlet sold their furniture. Pierre Bianchi took over the reins of the company in 1965, continuing to create the same type of modernist furniture. The company closed its doors for good in the 1990s.
