Specialist note
Créé en 1929 par Louis Sognot en collaboration avec l’atelier Primavera ce modèle de psyché est présenté la même année au Salon d’Automne. Le maharajah acquiert plus tard ce modèle pour la chambre de la maharani qu’il décide d’associer à un modèle de siège différent de celui du stand Primavera en 1929 : il lui préfère un siège de bureau pivotant sur piètement métallique tapissé de laine beige. Pensée par Louis Sognot et Charlotte Alix cette chaise fait son apparition au deuxième salon de l’UAM en 1931.

The maharajah later acquired this model for the maharani's bedroom, which he decided to associate with a different armchair from the one on the Primavera booth in 1929: he preferred a swivel desk chair on a metal base upholstered in beige wool. Designed by Louis Sognot and Charlotte Alix, this chair was displayed at the second UAM exhibition in 1931.
