Two vintage second class Parisian metro seats (1920's).
Metal legs, solid oak seat, enamelled plaque.
Circular bistro table ''Tout va bien'’
Metal and brass.
On July 19, 1900, the Paris metro is inaugurated. Eight years later, the mythical Sprague & Thomson wagons equip the different lines. Our two seats have circulated during the 'roaring twenties'. Let's imagine what these have experienced: Women are liberating themselves thanks to the fashion of Coco Chanel, artistic avant-gardism is led by Man Ray, Brancusi, Modigliani, Picasso and Josephine Baker…
Needless to say that these seats have a soul.
