Jean Pascaud, influential designer of the late 30s, 40s, and 50s, created this exceptional settee, a triumph of reserve and subtle appeal. While conservatively sleek and geometric in form, its plush cushions and small lavish accents—like its splayed legs, bronze sabots, and, notably, its pair of eagle ornaments—serve as elements of extraordinary comfort and beauty.
