Among the most captivating elements of Pierre-Louis Mascia’s new Milan boutique are the custom crystal flower hangers by sculptor Marie Christophe. The lily, a personal favorite, shimmers in delicate crystal, suspended among Mascia’s richly layered textiles—an elegant interplay of light, texture, and quiet opulence.

Since 1997, my work has been guided by a simple ethos: made by hand, shaped by human touch, inspired by faraway places, and filled with meaning that deepens over time.

I still remember the moment it truly began. Paris, 1999. Suspended in a quiet gallery were Marie Christophe’s wondrous wire creations—delicate, luminous, almost alive.

My heart skipped. I didn’t just see beauty; I felt connection. In that instant, I knew her work was something to be shared.

Today, that same feeling lives on in each and every creation by Marie Christophe and her  singular ability to transform wire into something poetic and enduring.

In the quiet dapple of a French garden,  Marie Christophe brings flight into being.

A small, watchful wonder in the kitchen: French sculptor Marie Christophe’s newest Picasso owl, drawn delicately in wire and brought to life with warm wooden beads, inky black crystal, and glints of gold. Perched atop its tiny ceramic vessel, with a simple wooden branch close by, it feels at once whimsical, primitive, and beautifully intelligent—like a treasured little creature just landed from an artist’s studio in France.

A sculptural presence with a sense of humor, mystery, and hand-made poetry.

Sometimes the best gardens are the ones we never planned.  Our amaranth patch wasn’t planted by our hands—it was gifted by the wind, scattering seeds that found their way here and decided to bloom. Now it’s a sea of color, a little reminder that nature always has surprises of her own.   My home ….where every shade of red feels like home

It is here in my greenhouse where every table tells a story  My home has been a quiet conversation between gardner and plant, intention and chance.  My garden unfolds as a gentle walk-through to three distinct garden patios and four garden rooms forming a loop around the house. Our beloved greenhouse, is our welcoming room.

Where I lay my hat… there is always a little sparkle.

A crystal-wire hanger by French sculptor Marie Christophe—part sculpture, part jewel, and the most elegant resting place for a favorite straw hat. Delicate, theatrical, and entirely practical in its own poetic way.

Because even the everyday deserves a beautiful place to land.

Elevate your space with the timeless beauty of French sculptor Marie Christophe. This custom sunflower, delicately crafted in wire and ceramic, floats above the fireplace like a golden whisper of Provence—elegant, airy, and unforgettable.

Paired with simple  slender wire birds perched  in quiet conversation, their silhouettes soft and lyrical, as if paused mid-flight.  And  with candles,  the composition becomes a living still life—refined, romantic, and effortlessly luxurious.

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.   Love it paired with New Kyoto Light Kelly Green and Hybrid large lumbar pillow in green 

Among the most captivating elements of the boutique are the custom crystal flower hangers conceived by sculptor Marie Christophe. Suspended  like a constellation in bloom, these delicate forms evoke blossoms caught in a moment of quiet bloom, as if time paused at the precise moment of flowering.  Each one meticulously shaped in transparent crystal to capture and refract light.

Rather than simply decorating the interior, the hangers act as beautiful sculptures —drawing the eye.

The gorgeous hangers create a landscape where light blossoms, and where the boundary between nature and creation gently dissolves.
