The Recamier of times

One of the most representative pieces from the Empire ere is the one that the English named it ‘daybed’, the French ‘bateau en lit’ and the Romanians ‘patul de zi’. One of the most famous kind of bed is the one created for Madame Recamier , the one that named it, made in 1798 by Louis-Martin Berthault architect.

Nowadays, the famous Recamier was adjusted in modern beds, sofas and lounge chairs who fit the classical dwellings but in the minimalistic buildings also.

Making an analogy between the original piece, extremely delicate in the past, adorned with human masks, lion or horse heads, bones, silver, glass and the today piece, modern, simplified but not simplistic at all, the Recamier stays an elegant, delicate, gives spiritual aristocracy and symbol to any room.

A modern and sophisticated reinterpretation : The Brodsworth Bed in Sienna Mahogany can be bought for 9000 pounds minimum.
