Many of us don’t know who Muriel Grateau is, or what she does.
A Parisian-based designer, Muriel is a woman of contrasts. She’s sells softly hued linens and sculpturally minimal tableware in an airy black-and-white gallery, and has recently launched a collection of dark, weighty, baroque jewellery sure to please the fashion set.
“I like the idea of exercises in style, the idea of approaching things like an architect with constraints”, she says.
Muriel has had great success as a fashion designer in Milan from 1975 to 1990, when she decided to quit everything and return to Paris. There she started her own business creating fashionable home wares and, most recently, onyx jewellery. And this is what I want you to see, take a look;
Her great work is oft hard to come by, though more can be seen at Luxury Culture.
