About Us
Just imagine, generation after generation of a single wood-working family, each embellishing his craft, each bequeathing these hard-won skills to their off-spring. For ours, the 7th generation, we’ve revived the long dead art of marquetry, embellishing veneers with shagreen, straw, shell, parchment, and horn, adding unaffected luxury to our furniture. (A few other shops can handle one or two of these materials, but only Atelier Viollet has mastered them all.)
Yet we’re either cursed (or blessed), with dissatisfaction. We push ourselves to make each piece better than the last. To do that, we listen hard to every designer, each architect, all clients. Of course, the virtuoso craftsmen of Atelier Viollet chip in their bottomless knowledge of wood and its wondrous possibilities.
Portfolio
Our humming workshop – founded in France in 1836 – was re-born in New York 150 years later. It is staffed now with proud workers of wood, each of them accomplished artisans in their own right. As a team, we go to work each day to build on our heritage, and set a mark for the next Viollet generation to strive for.
As you’ll soon see, although we revere the ancient art of cabinetry, we keep a lively eye on new lines, new subtleties, and new elegance of shape.
