Story of the piece
Lavender Box
Wood preserves what time cannot erase.
Lavender is the scent of pause, of gentleness. In the kitchen, it adds a floral touch to teas, sweets or savoury dishes. In well-being, it purifies. It helps to reconnect body and mind. It brings back serenity.
Jacky Cavallari graduated from the École Boulle and is today one of the few living masters of Marquetry - the art that gives colour, texture and life to wood. With the precision that time does not hasten.
For this Ash box, the craftsman chose natural woods, such as Limba, Blue-stained Rippled Maple and Clean Guava, and with them, composed the Lavender. Veneer upon veneer, using the same traditional marquetry technique employed in the 18th century.
A box to remind us of the value of serenity and discretion.
