Description from the seller

Exceptional lot of 4 original Art Nouveau wallpaper sheets from a very old professional catalogue of Maison Guillot in Paris, dating from 1902.

These sheets are true decorative relics of the period, stemming from a catalogue that is today extremely rare and practically unobtainable in this old edition. The original catalogue being very damaged, only a few plates have been preserved in a remarkable state of conservation.

You can discover the other lots of 4 sheets by visiting my items for sale.

The motifs feature superb floral and ornamental compositions typical of French Art Nouveau at the beginning of the 20th century, with colors ranging from sky blue to antique petrol blue, adorned with shimmering gold lines that perfectly enhance the muted and elegant tones of these years.

Each sheet measures approximately 42 x 32 cm.
*The frames shown in the wall presentation image are not included in the lot*

These vintage pieces are ideal for:
- high-end framing and wall decoration,
- cabinet of curiosities,
- bourgeois or eclectic interior,
- inspiration for decoration, design or scenography,
- collection of old wallpapers and decorative arts.

Rare authentic ensemble from a historic Paris professional fonds.

Condition: Very good overall for the period.
