About Jacques Bouvet

Jacques Bouvet et Cie. was founded in 1996 by Jacques Bouvet. Mr. Bouvet of French ancestry was born and raised in the island country of Mauritius. The fabric collection has a distinctive regard for color, texture and fiber. Benefiting from comprehensive experience in this industry, Mr. Bouvet formed a strong and well-respected organization with showrooms in all major markets in the United States, Mexico and Lima, Peru.

The Jacques Bouvet et Cie. collection is often described as "transitional" bridging the gap between the traditional and contemporary. The prints seen on both linen and cotton have been inspired by 18th and 19th Century French and Italian documents. The cotton collections have a sense of subtle ethnicity, their bold and colorful stripes in exquisite colors. The extensive matelassé assortment adds great depth to his collection, ranging from very traditional themes to exciting new look iridescent venues.

The entire collection offers a wide array of beautiful textures as well as avariety of chenilles and novelty fabrics. An assortment of silks and sheers completes this elegant collection.

Mr. Bouvet prided himself on his unique and subtle range of colors as well as the wonderful hand of his fabrics. Mr. Bouvet was always searching for new and fresh ideas to upgrade his compilation of striking textiles.

With Mr. Bouvet's passing in 2009, the collection and its offerings continue to grow under new leadership. We invite you to peruse the collection at your nearest representative showroom, through an independent sales agent or via our website: www.jacquesbouvet.com
