Maurice Hirsch

French designer Maurice Hirsch worked from the 1950s through the 1970s, producing furniture in a neoclassical taste reinterpreted for modern interiors. His armchairs and dining chairs, often in lacquered or painted wood with fluted details, and his cabinets draw on French eighteenth-century models with a lighter, streamlined line. Collectors look for signed pieces and complete sets of seating, which suit refined, classically inspired interiors.
