A superbly refined pair of Art Deco club armchairs by Maison Dominique, the celebrated Parisian decorating firm founded in 1922 by André Domin and Marcel Genevrière, upholstered in cream ivory leather with Macassar ebony wood details. The cubic form is powerfully architectural — broad square arms, a deeply generous seat, and a softly curved backrest that wraps around the sitter, combining geometric severity with ergonomic warmth in the manner that became Dominique's defining signature. Each chair rests on a low plinth base in Macassar ebony, the dark wood providing a sharp chromatic counterpoint to the pale cream leather above — a pairing of noble materials executed with the flawless savoir-faire of the Faubourg Saint-Honoré ateliers.
Maison Dominique (est. 1922)
Founded in Paris by André Domin (1883–1962) and Marcel Genevrière (1885–1967), Maison Dominique rapidly became one of the most prestigious interior design firms of the French Art Deco movement, with a showroom at 104, rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. Domin and Genevrière were distinguished by their ability to balance geometric rigour with human comfort, deploying sumptuous materials — palissandre, Macassar ebony, amaranth, shagreen, parchment, and gilt bronze — with exceptional restraint and precision. From 1926 they exhibited alongside Chareau, Puiforcat, Legrain, and Templier as the celebrated Groupe des Cinq, and their work was showcased at the landmark 1925 Paris Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs. Among their most prestigious commissions was the design of the Rouen Suite aboard the ocean liner Normandie (1933), described as "unquestionably the most avant-garde" of the four luxury apartments on board, as well as multiple commissions for the Mobilier National and the Élysée Palace.
