A 19th‑century French chaise longue, une véritable invitation à la détente. Found tucked in a Lyon warehouse, its classic “Chapeau de Gendarme” silhouette harks back to the elegant reign of Napoleon III. The craftsmanship is exquisite: hand‑turned wooden frame and solid, period‑correct construction. Upholstered in pristine French blue velvet, an unusual find in such flawless condition. Sylvie loves this piece for lazy afternoons in a reading nook, living room or your boudoir.
