Good morning everyone !
I feel very lucky I was born with a particular sensitivity to color, and I have always wanted to put this great chance to use in all my creations: first the world of stunning accessories, elegant hats, distinguished shoes of all kinds, extraordinary gloves, wonderful bags and nice scarves.
To stage these actors, I have built the bases of the decors with my Serenity and Left Bank ranges of mural paintings at Ressource, leather ranges at Gaiera, threads and fabrics, earthenware from Paris at Bleu d'Argile, earthenware, lamps and furniture with Chehoma and other ceramist-artists, several very nice books at the Editions du Chêne, wallpapers at Koziel and of course my own furniture since 2015 for color harmonies.
Still today I stay in my theater when I stage Parisian bistros, or exhibitions, castles and houses. I have become very attached to this typical indoor/intérieur french rattan furniture which I fully reinterpreted in terms of color harmonies. I’ve created almost 7900 harmonies so far.
I now want to share some of them, soberly, without avalanche, with all of you, as a walk in thematic proposals of multicolored weavings! If you do not find any harmony to your liking, I have many others in store in my mind.
You will find memories of childhood emotions, memories of peaceful and sunny moments, holidays and trips to imaginary countries; you will immediately feel the benefits. A feast for your heart and for your eyes.
Thank you very much!

Ours chairs are exceptionnal, rare and beautifull, they are expensive to make by hand, and expensive to buy: so, take really great care of your rattan chairs like your own babies.
What are the manufacturing times?

It takes time to do beautiful things of excellent quality. In high season, from mars to september, it is approximately 2 months, sometimes more. This lead time is estimated and absolutely NOT contractual. If you are in a hurry, buy what's in stock in store: this is made for this purpose indeed.
