Catalogue Note

Ce tapis est très probablement une variante d'un tapis réalisé par Myrbor d'après un carton de Fernand Léger pour Robert Mallet-Stevens vers 1927 et aujourd'hui conservé aux Musée des Arts Décoratifs à Paris sous le numéro d'inventaire 38606.A.

The offered lot is most likely a variation of a carpet designed by Fernand Léger and realised by Myrbor for Robert Mallet-Stevens circa 1927 and today kept in the collection of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris (inventory number : 38606.A).
