This book offers a synthesis of the history of taste for lacquers in France at the modern era, from their importation to their use, practical or as collection pieces.
It tries to define the outlines that characterized the market and taste for lacquers, and also their evolution at the 17th and 118th centuries, in order to follow the evolution of sensibilities regarding these objects that have always fascinated the Westerners.
