Rene Drouet
(1899-1993)
Following his student time at l’Ecole Boulle, Drouet worked as an apprentice to master designer Maurice Dufrene at Galeries Lafayette. Thereafter he worked at DIM (Decoration Interieure Mobilier) and in 1929 joined the studio of Jean Domin. With a solid knowledge of quality, learned from his apprentice years, he had the ability to provide furniture and create a complete interior. Drouet was a true devotee of the Art Deco style, carrying it, albeit with French Forties flair, into the post-World War II era. Among his achievements was an apartment on the top floor of a mansion on Parc Monceau for Charles Boyer and Pat Paterson.

- Renè Drouet, important set of six chairs in wood and white boucléBy René DrouetLocated in Milano, ITImportant and Magnificent set six chairs designed by the great French interior designer Renè Drouet from the 1930s, specifically from 1938. The set is an important composition of chairs also published in the 1938 Asembles Mobiliers catalog. Their frame is lacquered wood, with a freshly refreshed seat and back in white bouclé. The restoration that has taken place has not affected the originality of the seat at all, and its original form and interior have not been altered. Of great thickness, the chairs have an innovative design with soft shapes and rounded lines. In fact it may look like a contemporary line, but the French designer through these forms clearly anticipated the times! It can also be traced back to an innovative Renè Drouet Art Deco line, where the black wood typical of French Art Deco, highlights the futuristic soft lines. Its armrests made of tubular wood...Category
