The New Empire Collection reflects a time of opulence and extravagance during which skilled artisans were commissioned, by the wealthy, to create hand-made furnishings for their castles and palaces.
Today that same commitment to history, skill and quality is sustained by Chahwan's craftsmen, many of whom are second generation designers and furniture makers.
Their reproductions of antique pieces have become present-day heirlooms gracing the homes of a new generation of discerning patrons.
Galerie Chahwan takes pride in this remarkable offering of true reproductions in the Russian, French and Italian Empire styles.

18th Century cabinet makers designed furniture that was simple, yet elegant and functional.
The use of olive burl, walnut and cherry veneers married with inlays of satinwood, rosewood and ebony formed the very identity of fine furnishings.
Just as 18th century designers handcrafted furniture one piece at a time, Galerie Chahwan emulates those same techniques, insuring products of historic correctness, ageless beauty and great longevity.
