Jacques Doucet
Jacques Doucet (1853-1929) was the most celebrated couturier of Belle Époque Paris before assembling one of the most legendary private collections of his era, spanning eighteenth-century French decorative arts to the emerging avant-garde. He sold his period collection to fund his passion for the new, commissioning furniture from Eileen Gray and Pierre Legrain and acquiring Picasso’s Les Demoiselles d’Avignon directly from the artist’s studio.
The Aragon Table Lamp is named for Louis Aragon, the young poet who briefly catalogued Jacques Doucet’s library in the 1920s, absorbing the collector’s restless appetite for the new before becoming one of Surrealism’s central voices. Garcé & Dimofski mark that literary connection with a special edition made in straw marquetry, a craft of painstaking, cut-by-cut assembly not unlike compiling a library.
The collaboration is with Lison de Caunes, granddaughter of André Groult and one of the last great masters of straw marquetry in France, whose hand-applied straw catches light in shifting, almost written lines across the lamp’s surface. Offered in bespoke colours, each lamp carries a slightly different pattern, the straw’s natural sheen never repeating in quite the same way twice.

Few men have left such an indelible mark on the imaginations of art patrons and aesthetes. Jacques Doucet was the archetype of the modern collector, with a love of culture as vast as his curiosity and flair for the new. As a couturier, he mentored Paul Poiret and Madeleine Vionnet while dressing celebrities and heiresses. As a collector, he amassed the most legendary trove of rarities and masterpieces from the 18th century to the avant-garde, including Picasso, Klee, Matisse, and de Chirico, while commissioning furniture from Eileen Gray and Pierre Legrain, who decorated his last home, the fabled Studio Saint James. Now, his legacy lives on through a furniture collection available exclusively through Invisible Collection.
