Cedric DuPont puts French spin on antiques




I first met Cedric DuPont about ten years ago, when his shop was still on the island, near Worth Avenue. A very warm and charming person, and his floors were of parquet de versailles - which made a lovely creaking sound as one gingerly walked on them. I am way overdue for a visit to his new space on Dixie along antiques row. This profile on Cedric, from todays Palm Beach Daily News is a great introduction to a most fascinating and knowledgeable gentleman, and I'm sure you'll find yourself in his gallery soon, making arrangements to purchase something you never knew you couldn't live without!
