Maison Duvivier Canapés is a French company for handcrafted sofas, armchairs and residential furniture, founded in 1840, with its production site in Usson-du-Poitou (Département Vienne, south of Poitiers, Nouvelle-Aquitaine region). The company began as a saddler and harness maker; the artisan heritage of saddlery, leather working and upholstery remains the foundation of the brand identity to this day. In 1953 the transition to seating furniture began; in 1978 Jean Marie Duvivier opened a sofa manufacturing workshop in Usson-du-Poitou. The company has built craft expertise across seven generations. Since 2006 Maison Duvivier Canapés has held the "Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant" label (Living Heritage Company), awarded by the French Ministry of Economy — a distinction for exceptional craft and/or industrial manufacturing competence and for national and international reputation. In 2016 the brand launched a redeployment strategy under new management; since then, designer collaborations with external creatives have been built up, and a collaboration direction with Pierre Frey and Créations Métaphores for exclusive fabrics established. In 2023, a new cabinetmaking workshop was inaugurated alongside the existing saddlery and upholstery workshop in Usson-du-Poitou.

All products are manufactured exclusively in France (both workshops are located a few kilometres south of Poitiers). Production process: combination of bespoke saddlery and upholstery craft with modern technologies; patented SBD suspension system (Suspension Bi-Dynamique — dynamic double-bearing suspension) for enhanced seating comfort; 10-year guarantee on all models; bespoke production in size, finish and comfort. Design collaborations (selection): Guillaume Hinfray (Creative Director from 2019; collections Auguste, Emile, Elsa), Pierre Gonalons (collection Serge — reinterpretation of the Chesterfield), Charlotte Juillard (Jules, Joséphine), Jean-Philippe Nuel (Barbara, SF103), Michel Mortier.
