Born in the late 80s, En Attendant les Barbares is known for being the publisher of the first creations of Elisabeth Garouste and Mattia Bonetti. His approach has always been to try to break down the boundaries between design and decorative art, for example by emphasizing the work of craftsmen. Over time, many designers from different generations and backgrounds have joined the gallery, bringing their touch to the eclecticism that makes its identity, among them Christian Ghion, Arik Lévy, Mark Brazier-Jones, André Dubreuil or Matt Sindall.
Robert and Cheska Vallois have been dedicating their gallery to Art Deco since 1971. For furniture and art objects, the Art Deco years (1918-1940) were a period of luxuriance and sophistication for the materials used (shagreen, ivory, parchment, lacquer, mother-of-pearl, rare and precious wood …) which were sublimated by a great creativity in shapes. The Art Deco years had a major influence on contemporary design and marked the peak of interior designers and French craftsmen. The Vallois present the most talented creators of those years : Pierre Chareau, Marcel Coard, Jean Dunand, Jean-Michel Frank, Alberto et Diego Giacometti, Eileen Gray, André Groult, Paul Iribe, Pierre Legrain, Eugène Printz, Armand-Albert Rateau, or Jacques-Emile Ruhlman.

Le Bleu Sarah is now her signature, but in her universe there are many other creations, because Sarah Lavoine is often where you least expect her.
