Something special in Paris this fall/winter
If you are looking for something special in Paris this fall/winter you might be interested in this furniture exhibit.
Le chic ! Arts décoratifs et mobilier de 1930 à 1960 | Mobilier National
There was a New York Times article about it today (but it may be behind pay wall).

Can't access NYTimes article, says "I've reached limit of free access" -- so can you tell me how long this show runs? Is is at the Decorative Arts Musee of the Louvre? Thank you very much -- I'd also recommend the Musee Carnavalet in the 9th arr, in a beautiful mansion, free, and is of the history of the city. Excellent for 1-1 1/2 hr visit.

Here's a google translation from the French website:"The Mobilier national presents the exhibition Le chic! Decorative arts and furniture from 1930 to 1960 from October 12, 2022 to January 29, 2023. Brought together for the first time as part of an exhibition, nearly 200 works from the collections of the Mobilier national revive the essence of "Chic" in the French."

Designed to embody the essence of French decorative style, the exhibition features nearly 200 never-before displayed examples of furniture, lighting, tapestries and textiles. It is being presented through Jan. 29 on two floors at La Manufacture des Gobelins, the renowned tapestry factory in the 13th Arrondissement that now is managed by Mobilier National.
