This room, created by the designer Armand-Albert Rateau for Jeanne Lanvin’s private apartment, is a perfect illustration of Rateau’s innovative style combining classical art, an original bestiary and a taste for precious materials.
In 1920, the great fashion designer Jeanne Lanvin bought the mansion that formerly belonged to the Marquise Arconati-Visconti at 16, Rue Barbet-de-Jouy in Paris. She added a reception wing whose rooms (hall, library, gallery and dining room) were furnished by the designer Armand-Albert Rateau from 1921 to 1924. The pair of copper vases and screen by Jean Dunand, presented here, came from the dining room.
