The next time you’re in the 22 London, look up. Marie Christophe’s chandelier has five crystal birds and two crystal owls sitting on its trio of beautiful branches.

This new year’s all about pulling the cord on the computer and reconnecting with nature. For me, that means strolling in my lavender field and admiring the bright birdies and glittering birds that Marie Christophe, like Mother Nature, hard wires into her chandeliers and other creature creations like this new beautiful cage for my client!

Marie Christophe’s new dog sculptures are the cat’s meow. (Just couldn’t help myself!) They are hanging around, waiting for Marie to add the mirror to my client’s Fleurs de lyses mirror so they can see just how cute they look!!

Marie Christophe’s cradled-baskets chandelier was created for a chateau in Normandy, France.

It is the centerpiece of this table, and its guests at Domaine de Bailleul, a castle in Normandy, France

Garden Pavilion Beauty for Jan-Louis Deniot!

After months and months of meticulous wirework, Marie Christophe has finished this fabulous, 6.5-foot chandelier for Jean -Louis Deniot, which is dressed elegantly in 4,500 grey, blue, green and brown ceramics.

Marie Christophe’s J’Adore chandelier brings a bit of fantasy into this gorgeous bathroom, turning it into an oasis of opulence. 

Marie Christophe’s latest wire creation, a 5-foot high, 3-foot-wide crystal chandelier, is a glittering whimsical masterpiece whose wise owls and pretty-featured birds enchant the eyes.

Marie’s life-size angel, is a real winged wonder!

Marie Christophe is crafting this simple, spherical chandelier for a client in Paris.
It’s a custom ceiling centerpiece – it measures 43 inches by 34 inches – and when Marie completes it, it will feature signature lights. I love watching Marie work on her works – she gives form to imagination and dreams.

Spring brings lots of news from Jo’s Farms, our lavender farm and my new business…. We’re opening a shop for all things lavender and it is also a place where you can rediscover the most amazing works from European artists (some no longer in production ) and the most intoxicating French lavender growing in my field.
My linen bags, bundles of beauty are a reminder of the intoxicating color and perfume of my lavender garden.

Glorious, gorgeous Ponti pillows shown in Dijon, Pink Lavender and Prussian Blue. I want them all!!

Marie Christophe has been featured in Departures magazine yet again! The mirror she created in black, white and pink ceramic beads for a powder room for Oliver Furth’s Beverly Hills client is simply stunning – and I love the way it merges with the big-bloom peonies in the wallpaper. Talk about an indoor garden! It was an absolute pleasure to work with Oliver Furth on this project!!

I love showing off Marie Christophe’s custom work, so here’s the latest: These two lantern pendants, which are defined by blue, green and gold opaline crystals, are the focal point of a primary-suite bathroom designed by Fern Santini, who is based in Austin, Texas. As Fern told me, “They are pure magic in that space.” I couldn’t agree more!!

I’m delighted to report that Marie Christophe’s Shaliimar chandelier is hanging out in a chic living room in Ibiza. Its golden cousin is illuminating Guerlain in Versailles.

In this Hollywood Hills living room, it’s the Marie Christophe lamp that sheds light on the brilliant nature of the collection!

1stdibs featured Marie Christophe’s Lamp Galet in the fabulous Hollywood Hills living room designed by Nickey & Amy Kehoe of Nickey Kehoe Design. The artful mastery of the cool collected art (don’t you just love that gallery wall!) paired with Marie’s coveted Lamp Galet really elevates this space…playful, personal and quietly clever; the ethos of this design duo!

I love the layered look … Austin-based decorator Fern Santini chose Adam & Viktoria’s pillows to bring a touch of elegance to a lake-house sofa.

“I love a room that’s elegant, but really laid back and easy on the eyes,…a kind of uncluttered elegance that’s been paired down and really well-edited” Victoria Smith (aka sfgirlbythebay). Victoria talks about well edited spaces on the blog today and features Marie Christophe’s elegant and chic house. I couldn’t agree with you more Victoria because I love Marie’s house and just adore her blue eyed octopus!
