ollowing the great tradition of fine French ebenistes, Jean Berenger de Nattes creates pieces that are beautifully conceived, meticulously

crafted and exquisitely finished. He utilizes the finest veneers, bold lacquers and twenty-two carat gilt bronze to achieve these works.

Building on his great love and knowledge of art history, and inspired by extensive travels throughout Asia, Europe and Africa, he designs furniture that is at once bold and elegant. Nattes draws on the invaluable experience of living with and coming to know intimately works by some of the most celebrated designers of the 18th through the 20th centuries, including Weis Weiler, B.V.R.B., Sue & Mare, and Armand Albert Rateau.

Providing inspiration from an early age, this important first hand knowledge has allowed him to understand more keenly the subtleties and nuances of great design.

Jean Berenger de Nattes, who has spent many years designing for and working with private clients and Interior designers, has now turned his focus to designing and executing these unique pieces that we are pleased to present.
