I imagine vast, silent spaces.

On the walls hang centuries-old paintings; tapestries and rugs soften the rooms, while silk upholsters armchairs and sofas.

The beauty of the furnishings bears witness to an age rich in culture, elegance, and grandeur.

Welcome to Versailles.

If you close your eyes, you can still hear the sharp click of a heel breaking the silence without hesitation.

The actors enter the stage, and the court comes alive.

These pieces of furniture are made as they were in the past, using only authentic materials: chestnut, oak, bois de rose, amaranth, hand-chiselled bronze, marble, and gold.

I have only one heart and one word, and when I write “hand-chiselled bronze covered in gold leaf,” I mean 24-karat gold.

“Somewhere—though I will not tell you where—I signed this piece to authenticate it, but also because in that simple gesture lies the pride and passion of a craft that has been alive for centuries.”
