Neoclassical Curule with Swan Heads, France, circa 1960

About the Item

Elegant antique-style stool / curule with chromed metal structure ending in bronze or brass swan heads, and black leather seat. Neo / Revival Classical style / Hollywood Regency, France, circa 1960-1970. In the style of Maison Jansen productions. La Maison Jansen, founded in 1880 by Jean-Henri Jansen, is a French interior design house characterized both by a strong interest in traditional furnishings and by the creation of more contemporary pieces. La Maison has worked for many institutions and personalities such as The White House under J. F. Kennedy, English Royalty (Elizabeth II, Edward VII, Edward VIII), Spanish, Belgian and Saudi Arabia, Prince Aga Khan, Coco Chanel, Pierre Cardin, the Maison Rothschild, Brigitte Bardot, the Opéra Garnier, etc. When it was founded, Jansen only resold existing furniture. It was in the early 1940s that the House opened its own workshops. In 1971, she joined the Leleu-Deshays house. But gradually Maison Jansen was no longer able to adapt to societal changes and changing tastes. She lost her clientele and closed in 1989. However, her creations are still very present on the international market and in auction rooms. In very good conditions.
