ANCIENT CANING, STRAW WORK AND WEAVING RESTORATION • CREATIONS



A PASSION FOR SEATS THAT HAVE A BIT OF A SOUL

BEAU BRIN is the workshop of a crafter having trained as a upholsterer, but who was after all, very attracted by the Thonet and Art Deco cane chairs, the modernists and the woven Scandinavians of the 20th century. Saddened by the disastrous restorations we can notice sometimes, she drops her fabrics and decides to henceforth devote herself to the work of these natural fibers according to the rules ! In french "dans les règles de l'art" !

 

It is a real know-how : the caning is handmade, the straw does never come out of a ready-to-use roll, the cord is carefully chosen, then beautiful. A concern for excellence, respect for traditional techniques and priority given to high quality materials and impeccable finishing are the rules of the workshop. Here, we know how to appreciate the beautiful things...
