His team masters in-house a wide range of techniques and rare materials<\/strong> such as straw marquetry<\/strong>, precious wood veneers<\/strong>, bronze<\/strong> work and coloured stainless steel<\/strong> assemblies. Not to mention the sand, which Jean-Luc Le Mounier has been moulding for several years.<\/p>\n

His workshop has perfected its experience over time thanks to the realisation of hundreds of projects. These have led the team to take on challenges using very specific techniques such as the assembly of shagreen<\/strong> skins, the covering of furniture interiors with leather<\/strong>, the inlaying of mother-of-pearl<\/strong> or gypsum<\/strong> (selenite), lacquer<\/strong> or marble<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The artist sets no limits. He does not forbid himself to seek other know-how in the best French workshops. He works with master enamellers from Limoges, great Italian marblers but also with young talents with unique know-how : embroiderers, upholsterers, ceramists.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”15″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_text_aligment=”” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” css=”.vc_custom_1469786686827{padding-top: 65px !important;padding-bottom: 70px !important;background-color: #f6f6f6 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_row_inner row_content_width=”grid” content_text_aligment=””][vc_column_inner][vc_masonry_media_grid element_width=”6″ gap=”30″ item=”5509″ grid_id=”vc_gid:1751557201838-1075fa40-8faf-3″ include=”6267,6265,6266″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_text_aligment=”” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” css=”.vc_custom_1468411263400{padding-top: 32px !important;padding-bottom: 38px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_row_inner row_content_width=”grid” content_text_aligment=”” css=”.vc_custom_1467887767414{margin-right: -20px !important;margin-left: -20px !important;}”][vc_column_inner css=”.vc_custom_1468410965662{padding-right: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}” offset=”vc_col-lg-4″][vc_empty_space height=”33″]

Each unique creation is also an opportunity for the creator to tell a story and to share a part of himself. Jean-Luc Le Mounier creates his art furniture<\/strong> with passion and a real attachment to the tradition of French decorative arts<\/strong> and traditional cabinetmaking techniques<\/strong>. He pays attention to all the details that ensure the durability of each of his creations. He and his team of craftsmen devote hundreds of hours to the meticulous execution of finishes that are almost museum quality.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”60″][vc_custom_heading text=”French know-how recognised worldwide” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:15px|text_align:left|color:%23999999|line_height:15px” use_theme_fonts=”yes” el_class=”uppercase-letter-spacing-2″][vc_custom_heading text=”His know-how allows him to work with famous architects, decorators and international collectors” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” google_fonts=”font_family:Arvo%3Aregular%2Citalic%2C700%2C700italic|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal”][vc_column_text el_class=”txt-justify”]For more than 20 years, Jean-Luc Le Mounier has been working in his cabinetmaking<\/strong> workshop<\/strong> in Brittany<\/strong>, near Dinard<\/strong> and Saint-Malo<\/strong>. Together with his partner and workshop manager Ronan Le Bruchec, Compagnon du Devoir like him, he designs and realises unique pieces<\/strong> of contemporary art furniture<\/strong>, 100% made in France<\/strong>. Accompanied by a small multi-talented team, the creator personally supervises each bespoke project<\/strong> to ensure that each customer’s experience is a privileged and unique one. He presents his work in several French and international art galleries and collaborates with major interior design<\/strong> and decoration<\/strong> companies.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_text_aligment=”” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” css=”.vc_custom_1680532274512{background-color: #f6f6f6 !important;}”][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1685085707815{padding-top: 0px !important;}” el_class=”section-photo-bouchot”][vc_row_inner content_placement=”middle” row_content_width=”grid” content_text_aligment=””][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1680532298540{padding-right: 30px !important;padding-left: 30px !important;}”][vc_custom_heading text=”Labelled as an \u201cEntreprise du Patrimoine Vivant\u201d (Living Heritage Company)” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:15px|text_align:left|color:%23000000|line_height:15px” use_theme_fonts=”yes” el_class=”uppercase-letter-spacing-2″][vc_custom_heading text=”A high quality cabinetmaker’s workshop and a high level of excellence” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” google_fonts=”font_family:Arvo%3Aregular%2Citalic%2C700%2C700italic|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal”][vc_column_text el_class=”txt-justify”]His 10 years of training on the Tour de France as a “Compagnon du Devoir<\/strong>” and the 20 years of experience of his luxury cabinetmaking workshop<\/strong> have driven him to perfection.
