Limited Edition Mobilier National
Add to Wishlist

Since the seventeenth century, the Mobilier National has served as the guardian of France’s decorative arts heritage, commissioning and preserving furniture for the French Republic’s most prestigious residences and embassies. In recent years the institution has opened its collections to a new generation of makers, selecting only a handful of contemporary designers each year whose work is judged worthy of entering the nation’s permanent patrimony, alongside centuries of royal and republican craftsmanship.

Eric Benqué, a 2013 laureate of the Bettencourt Schueller Foundation’s Prize for Craft Intelligence, designs furniture around the discipline of resource-efficient construction and precise joinery rather than applied ornament. His Folding Stool, limited to eight pieces, is built entirely from solid maple, cork and leather, its parts locked together with tongue-and-groove joints alone, no nails, no glue, so the object’s honesty of assembly becomes its own quiet decoration.
