| Introduction | What's in a name, you ask? Galerie Jean Desert was the name of Eileen Gray's shop (Paris, 1922-1930). I'm referencing this name as an homage to Gray, arguably the object of the most profound and enduring design crush I've ever had. I'm also sentimental about beautiful (yet financially flawed) retail endeavours, having been there once myself. Gray will undoubtedly figure in many of my future posts. The name of this blog is subject to change, however, if I hear anything litigious from her estate... These snapshots are designed to aid in the exploration of the decorative arts, both historical and contemporary - one piece, individual or concept at a time. Enjoy! |
