I never got to meet Malafosse but I heard quite a bit about him.

I remember that Jim once met by chance one of his sons at an antique market.
Jim posted in 2015 that the whole Malafosse collection was still at Versailles in the family estate

hello Caslino ,
I have never met Malafosse, I'm glad to read that you had this pleasure..
My friend Cyril "le collectionneur" knew him quite well,if the collection was to be sold , he would know..
