Because there’s no such thing as too much of a good design …Trellis, Adam & Viktoria’s more popular patterns, ( and one of my all time favs  and featured in Vogue!!)  is a sweet flower repeat with Russian influences- block printed on silk taffeta, silk velvet applications and heavy embroidery and available by the yard!

The added embroidery makes the flowers really bloom and the idea of getting to make drapes and table runners and to upholster a chair has even the pillows talking!

   
Marie Christophe’s creations are always my inspiration! Flowers, candles and Marie Christophe candleholders are always at my table when I play with flowers and make my floral creations. Hers too!!

Opulence is here!

Surround yourself with luxurious, colorful, personality-filled velvet appliquéd Belgian linen pillows from Adam & Viktoria Sweden for a joyful seasonal home update.

Boldly patterned pillows create a happy, cozy vibe.

When you add texture and pattern, it is like an herb and spice!
Running businesses built on beauty is my greatest joy!
Today and every day, I admire, champion and celebrate women… especially my beautiful mother, Josephine!
Let’s all blossom!
Every woman is a unique universe. Today and every day, let’s celebrate your style, your beauty, your ideas, your authenticity and your passion.
Let’s continue to redefine rules with courage and grace.
For ourselves and the girls growing up behind us.
Here’s to all of you!
Happy International Women’s Day to all you lovelies!!!!

I discovered Marie Christophe’s enchanting creations in Paris in 1999 at a gallery called En Attendant les Barbares.

My heart skipped a beat. I was so smitten. I knew I had to share her poetic, wondrous creations with the world.  I signed her immediately. The rest, as they say, is history.

All of her creations are inspired by her travels to India, Italy and Morocco

Her creations always bring a sense of expression where every detail tells a sophisticated and personal story.

details ….

My niche has always been sourcing one-of-a-kind items that will “make a room sing,” or comprise the perfect tablescape. My inventory ranges from French sculptor Marie Christophe ’s wondrous wire creations and Adam & Viktoria’s hand-dyed velvet appliqué Belgian linen pillows from Sweden to Bonita Ahuja’s hand-dyed, hand-woven textiles from England and one-off collections from Europe no longer in production

Rainbow, Marie Christophe’s newest colossal, colorful  creation for my client, truly makes a big statement: It’s nearly 6 feet tall. I love the trio of birdies perched amid the crystals and beaded branches, flowers and leaves. I can almost hear them singing of spring!

PaperCity wrote a big feature on Marie Christophe that really captures her artistry and it features one of our favorite projects in which she introduced a trio of shimmering lanterns and chandeliers for a fashionable client’s dreamy palazzo in Turin.

Lisa Fontanarosa, Christophe’s agent in the U.S. explains her client’s work.  “Marie has an eye for turning the functional into the extraordinary, and every piece she creates is a fairy tale filled with wonder. ” Thank you Diane Dorrans Saeks for this beautiful feature!

Influential designers such as Jean-Louis Deniot, Muriel Brandolini, Pierre-Louis Mascia,  and Philippe Model are staunch supporters of her work. Her enchanting beaded lighting hangs in New Delhi mansions, Tangier hillside houses, New York apartments, Paris apartments and ateliers overlooking the Seine.
