Artisans, poets of ceramics, their creations have this delightfully antiquated charm of dreamed objects.
Their house gives a new breath and a title of nobility to the forgotten items of the modern times. Romanesque, these two knights have a particular tenderness for ne- glected utensils. They dare subversive surrealism under conformist appearances.
Fervent to Shintoism, they like to discover improbable and alchemical associations. Abhorrent to boredom, they cherish the imperfection, the fragility that reveals the soul through the sensible matter.
This breath of fantasy and obsolete refinement is born as a mantra of their workshops to Buddhist spirituality. Their craftsmen are for the most part Tibetan.
Their peaceful gestures seem punctuated with meditative sweetness in the presence of the moment.
Their boutiques invite guests from all over the world to their homes to rediscover the magic of everyday life.
Enchanter of the 21st century, Astier de Villatte reinvents majesty with a delicate humility
in a fantasy past.
