INSPIRATION
Sixteen items from the French Series marked the entrance of Antoine Proulx into the furniture industry in 1993.  Inspiration for the initial collection stemmed from the works of architect, Pierre Chareau, most notably his Maison de Verre in Paris.

FEATURES

Strives to continue the use of traditional building methods, while constantly seeking improvements to the old ways as well as new ways to meet the needs of a modern society.
Contains external hardware made by hand in our own workshop.
Utilizes imported internal hardware (e.g. drawer slides, hinges, latches, etc.) that is customized by our workshop so that it properly serves our furniture.
