Feau & Cie: Artful Walls

Founded in 1875, the French firm Feau & Cie craft and restore large scale decorative wall panels in the French 18th century style and beyond. They are known around the world for having an extensive collection of documents and sample wall panels from 17th and 18th century France that they draw from to restore and create elegant rooms today. Their craftsmanship is second to none, and their ability to adapt this French craft into a multitude of styles is fascinating. Their work can be seen in homes around the world as well as in the MET and The Getty.

We enjoyed the monochromatic tenor of this room allowing the wall detailing to take center stage.
