Jules-Edmond-Charles Lachaise and Eugène-Pierre Gourdet

Jules-Edmond-Charles Lachaise and Eugène-Pierre Gourdet were French interior design partners. Their work is characteristic of the opulent and derivative style of the Second French Empire of the mid-late 1800s. They frequently worked for Empress Eugénie, wife of Napoleon III and other members of French society.
