  • About the Chevrolet Bel Air 1959 : When the American dream rolled on four chrome wheels

    Launched in 1950, the Chevrolet Bel Air became a veritable icon of flamboyant American design in 1959.

    This version was distinguished by its ‘gull-wing’ rear wings, double headlamps and enlarged radiator grille, evoking the optimism of the Sixties. A symbol of prosperity, it embodies the apogee of the “Jet Age” style, where the car becomes a rolling work of art. Under the bonnet are powerful, reliable V8 engines, popular with vintage enthusiasts.

    Anecdote: its extravagant silhouette inspired numerous miniatures and hot rod customisations. Today, the '59 Bel Air is one of the most collectible American cars in the world, sought after for its retro charm, generous chrome and spectacular presence.

About the craftsman.

The cabinetmaker who carves wood into the bodywork of legends

Stéphane Carton shapes furniture in the same way that others restore classic cars: with precision, uncompromising attention to detail and an immense tenderness for timeless forms.

Son of a craftsman, he discovered the world of wood at a very early age in his father's workshop, where he developed a passion for the material and learned to understand and respect it. With a joiner's CAP and cabinetmaker's CAP in his pocket, he became an accomplished craftsman, renowned for his expertise.

In 2020, he founded Atelier Stéphane Carton to bring together his two passions: wood and cars. Bugatti, Porsche, Chevrolet... His collection of automotive art furniture, unique pieces in solid wood, leather and metal, are entirely handcrafted, from the initial sketch to the final prototype. He draws up his plans to 1/10th scale, studies the proportions and looks for the right lines, those that convey the soul of an exceptional model.

The result is a style that is retro, noble and daring, transforming each piece of furniture into an automobile on wheels, or almost.
