The Collection

Virtues of the Maison

Gilded Objects

Candelabra, mirrors and reliquaries finished in 24-karat leaf, each surface burnished by hand beneath candlelight.

Bespoke Interiors

Chambers composed as theatre — crimson velvet, sculpted plaster and ceilings laid in gold, staged to your measure.

Restoration & Provenance

Seventeenth-century ornament revived by our conservators, its full history bound into the Maison archive.

The Atelier

A Rite in Three Movements

  1. The Commission

    Your desires are received in private audience; sketches and gilding samples follow within a fortnight.

  2. The Hand at Work

    Master gilders, carvers and glassmakers labour in concert; patrons may witness the piece mid-stride.

  3. The Unveiling

    Your piece is revealed beneath the spotlight, conveyed by white-glove courier and installed in situ.

The Patrons

Word from the Salon

“The mirror arrived and the chamber simply surrendered to it. My guests now applaud the plasterwork.”

Isabella, Marchioness of Ravenmere

Patron since MMXIV

“They gilded my library ceiling as if the Baroque had never ended. Provenance papers, white gloves — all theatre, and all true.”

Cornelius Vane, Keeper of Antiquities

Patron since MMXVIII

“I commissioned one candelabra and rebuilt the entire salon around it. Guilt and gilt in equal measure — no regrets.”

Amara Osei, Architect of Interiors

Patron since MMXX

The Enquiries

Questions of the Salon

A single gilded object demands six to twelve weeks of handwork; full chamber campaigns unfold across several months, with each movement announced in writing.
Yes. Every commission travels in a purpose-built crate with a white-glove courier, insured to full value and installed by our own hands.
Gladly. Our conservators revive ornament of any provenance, documenting every intervention so the piece's history remains honest.
Always 24 karats, laid over clay bole and burnished with an agate stone — exactly as the seventeenth century demanded.
An evening at the atelier: candlelight, gilding demonstrations, and a unhurried conversation about what your chamber deserves.
