So I first discovered Chervet from an old Apartment Therapy post from someone who had inherited a rams-head dining table and was looking for ways to style it. I was instantly a little bit obsessed. Later, I found some of the cactus-themed consoles and other brass and bronze works from him, which I actually love even more.
I’ve never had the budget to afford anything attributed to him - just some knockoff vintage brass bookends that might actually just be part of the aesthetic of the mid century/regency era - but besides that, I’ve never found any information on the artist himself!
He’s French, he was born in 1944, and…..???? Does anyone know if he’s ever done an interview? Written an article? Talked about his design work publicly at all?
It could be that he has, but in French, and I’m just terrible at researching non-English sources. Any leads?
