Furniture and objets d'art

The Andre’s built up a collection of outstanding furniture dating from the Louis XV and Louis XVI periods.
As visitors move from one room to the next, they come across armchairs made by Carpentier upholstered with Beauvais tapestry, a Chinese lacquer secrétaire with gilded bronze mounts, chests of drawers signed by Riesener, BVRB, Baumhauer or Oton, rubbing shoulders with precious objets d’art acquired in the Orient.
