Laurence Vauclair
In 2003, Laurence Vauclair conquered Paris. Following in the footsteps of the greatest, she opened her own gallery in the 7th arrondissement of Paris, to complement her already famous stall at Saint-Ouen Flea Market.
For twenty years now, with passion and audacious talent, Laurence has been reviving a new language, a 19th-century baroque theme. She has been sharing it and making it available to anyone opening the door to Galerie Vauclair in the heart of Paris.
If this new gallery proved to be a successful venture for Laurence, this was largely thanks to the strong duo she has with her husband Denis Rouquette. Denis is the activator of Laurence’s dreams, the man who makes her wildest ideas feasible.
For 20 years, Galerie Vauclair is been located in the Carré Rive Gauche and has become a key venue for Parisian decoration events, including Paris Design Week, Paris Déco Off, and Maison d’Objet.
Together, Laurence and Denis have taken paths never before trodden by antique dealers, celebrating bold collaborations in the fields of craft art (Fromental, L’Atelier du Mur, Roseus Barbatus) and contemporary creation (Laura Gonzalez, Pierre Gonalons, Sandra Benhamou).
The future projects of the Galerie Vauclair are in the image of these magical antique dealers: unpredictable, sublime, and deeply human. This year, Laurence and Denis are celebrating 20 years of ingenuity, festivities, and loyalty in their boutique in the Carré Rive gauche.
