The Parisian couple Claude and Françoise-Xavier Lalanne called themselves “Les Lalanne.” They came to prominence in the 1960s—together!—but they created work separately, both looking to nature for inspiration. Over the years, Les Lalanne produced elephants, donkeys, rabbits, bears, and ducks that doubled as small tables, desks, bathtubs, chairs, and stools. Now, Françoise-Xavier’s daughter, Dorothée, who pored over her father’s early creations as a child in the 1950s, is putting 70 works by her father up for auction. There will be a week-long public exhibition beforehand, curated by the French luxury fashion designer Simon Jacquemus. —Elena Clavarino
