Nearly two centuries later, Christian Dior debuted his first collection for his namesake French couture house amongst a sea of eighteenth century cannage chairs. Monsieur Dior, seemingly enchanted by the furniture’s design, began experimenting with the chair’s old fashion canning technique, eventually employing the pattern as a decorative motif for the brand’s “Eau Fraîche” perfume in 1953. In the years that followed, Dior’s predecessors returned to this theme often, incorporating the pattern within the designs of clothing, accessories and fine jewelry.
