Biography Not wishing to simply produce or be rational about a product, Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance prefers that each of his projects has its own unique scenario, nourished without distinction between uses, forms, materials or aesthetics. For him, curves and straight lines, sensuality and strictness interact in confrontations that are conducive to create meaning and awaken our senses. Through his desire to breath life into both the objects and spaces he designs, Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance views each project as an organic form that will grow over time with its user, almost like a natural element that can Challenge human order or disorder. Originally, Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance was a sculptor, preoccupied with each work he created by a story and intimate link with nature that he felt the need to retranscribe by using his hands. But soon the idea of stirring emotions in others by creating useful forms became an evident path for someone who loves the beautiful as much as the functional and harmony as much as social responsibility. So he turned to design. Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance often compares his approach to tsubo niwa, the tiny garden at the centre of a traditional Japanese house. Like an organic pulse in a profession dedicated to meeting the demands of an industry, a market or a specific client, he is as ready to design objects with inspired lines for manufacturers (Bernhardt Design, Ceccotti Collezioni, Cinna, Ligne Roset, La Chance, Petite Friture, Tacchini, Zanotta.) as he is to imagine harmonious living areas (Senderens, Air France Lounges, Ciel de Paris, Meurice Oenotheque, Transumance Chalet, #Cloud Paris lounge) or even to define a product image or showcase for a famous brand (Paco Rabanne, YSL Beauty, Perrier-Jouët,). Thus in 2015 Montblanc associated its name with Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance, entrusting him with the architectural plans of the company’s 500 boutiques worldwide. His unique approach has led him to conceive exceptional objects that have been presented in the Pierre bergere gallery in Brussels and the BSL gallery in Paris. He has participated in prestigious events like the AD Interiors exhibition at Paris’ Musée des Arts Decoratifs in 2013 and more recently, the AD collections exhibition, also in Paris. His creative meanderings have led him to initiate a collaboration with the Neal Feay workshop in the United States and also to work with two royal factories in France: Mobilier National (National Furniture) and the Manufacture de Sevres (ceramics). The latter two endeavors combine his contemporary vision of design with the finely-honed skills of master craftsmen that were used in the 18th century. His approach has been acclaimed by the French and international press and he has received many prizes including NeoCon Silver 2016 for his Modern Family collection for Bernhardt Design, the 2015 Via Label, the 2014 Janus business prize for the Air France Salons, the GQ Best Designer prize in 2012, the prestigious Red Dot prize for Best Product in 2011 and both the Elle Decoration International Design Prize and Wallpaper Design Award in 2009. With his innate fondness for Art Nouveau, he relies not only on the universal character of nature to impose shapes that make sense but believes that the IDEA of a total, multidisciplinary art is vital for contemporary creation.

Tiffany Studios’ Pond Lily Desk Set is a rare model, with only three extant sets known. The set is decorated with a dazzling array of lily pads, lily buds, dragonflies, and moths. The dragonfly and moth was a leitmotif of the Art Nouveau, but Louis Tiffany encountered the creatures and explored their form and significance throughout his childhood and artistic life, beginning as a youngster who sketched au plein air in the woods and wetlands surrounding his father’s summer house. At his Laurelton Hall estate, an artwork of nature coaxed into form over decades, Tiffany observed these insects in the teeming saltwater marshes and wetlands of Oyster Bay. The crown jewel of his Laurelton Hall garden was a water lily pond filled with varieties of colored water lilies, a novelty that debuted at the 1900 Exposition Universelle. Tiffany proceeded to make a series of designs based on the pond lily which he displayed to much acclaim in the 1902 Turin Prima Esposizione Internazionale d'Arte Decorativa Moderna.

Dimensions - H: 29 1/2 in W: 46 in D: 23 3/4 in A sophisticated French Louis XVI style ebonized writing desk by Bodart, dating to circa 1955–1965, showcasing the refined Neoclassical design and exceptional decorative craftsmanship for which French furniture of this period is celebrated. The desk combines a dramatic black ebonized finish with finely applied brass mounts, gilt-bronze ornament, and an impressive embossed leather writing surface, creating a striking piece that bridges traditional French design with the more glamorous sensibility of mid-century interiors. The rectangular top is fitted with a rich black leather writing surface, beautifully embossed and decorated with an intricate gilt-tooled border. The subtle tooling provides an elegant contrast against the deep black ground while emphasizing the architectural geometry of the Louis XVI form. A molded edge surrounds the top, with additional brass detailing highlighting the perimeter and giving the desk a particularly luxurious appearance. Below the top is a beautifully organized arrangement of five hand-crafted dovetailed drawers, including two drawers on each side and a larger central drawer. Each drawer front is outlined with delicate gilt-brass trim and fitted with decorative brass pulls. The central drawer is particularly distinctive, featuring an elaborate Louis XVI-style gilt-bronze escutcheon and ring pull, incorporating a classical ribbon-tied bow and foliate ornament (it has a faux key drawer pull). The combination of restrained geometric drawer fronts and elaborate ormolu hardware is characteristic of the Louis XVI aesthetic, where architectural symmetry is balanced by finely rendered decorative details. The desk is further elevated by its architectural base. The corners are defined by fluted and tapered pilaster-style supports, while the slender, tapered legs terminate in small brass feet. Brass collars at the transition between the legs and case provide another layer of detail and visually connect the gilt-metal elements throughout the piece. The ebonized finish gives the desk a dramatic, almost architectural presence, while the warm brass and gilt-bronze accents add depth and contrast. The reverse is finished and decorated as well, allowing the desk to be positioned beautifully within a room rather than necessarily against a wall. Its relatively compact proportions and generous writing surface make it exceptionally versatile for a home office, library, study, executive office, bedroom, dressing room, or designer workspace. It would also make a particularly impressive writing desk or statement occasional desk in a sophisticated interior. By Bodart, this desk exemplifies the enduring appeal of French Louis XVI inspired furniture produced during the mid-20th century. The combination of ebonized wood, embossed leather, gilt-brass outlining, hand-crafted dovetailed drawers, fluted legs, and finely detailed ormolu hardware gives the piece a distinctly luxurious character while maintaining the clean symmetry associated with French Neoclassical design. A wonderful choice for collectors and interior designers seeking French antique-style furniture, Louis XVI desks, ebonized furniture, leather-top writing desks, or French Neoclassical office furniture, this Bodart desk...

In the early 1920s, he took part in the Venice Biennale, the Monza Biennale, the Exposition des Arts Décoratifs in Paris and exhibitions in Cologne and Barcelona. His work combines extreme modernity with outstanding technical ability. His creations include the glass windows of the Trieste Stock Exchange, the windows of the Motorship Victoria as well as those of the transatlantic liner Conte di Savoia. In 1932, Pietro Chiesa was asked by Gio Ponti to share in the artistic direction of the newborn FontanaArte, a role that would enable him to give full expression to his creative flair by designing over a thousand different objects (furniture, tables, lamps, glass windows, objets d’art etc). Some of these pieces took their place in the history of design and are still produced by FontanaArte today, such as the Fontana curved table (1932), the Cartoccio vase (1932) and the Luminator floor lamp (1933).
