Timeless

A selection of timeless furniture and objects. Maison Arteslonga 

Orientalist

Orientalism is a literary and artistic movement born in Western Europe in the 18th century. Through its breadth and vogue, throughout the 19th century, it marked the interest and curiosity of artists and writers for the countries of the west (the Maghreb) or the Levant (the Middle East). Born in the fascination of the Ottoman Empire, this exotic trend is associated with all the artistic currents of the 19th century, academic, romantic, realist or even impressionist. It is present in architecture, music, painting, literature, poetry…

Baroque

Italy is the birthplace of the Baroque. From the middle of the 16th century to the 18th century, the Baroque style marked European art and architecture, not to mention the fields of music and dance. Characterized by a taste for movement, dramatization and decorative exuberance, Baroque is a complex aesthetic paradigm that aims to surprise and move viewers. A large-scale movement, it quickly spread from Italy to the major countries of Europe. Rubens, Vélasquez, Caravaggio, Bernini… These few famous names reveal the influence on a European scale of the Baroque, which could be defined as a spirit contrary to that of classicism.

Proustian Era

An interior decoration collection inspired by the Napoleon III era and the beginning of the 20th century offering revisited furniture and decorative accessories for a unique and inspiring current decoration. The Napoleon III style is located between 1852 and 1870. Presents two very different aspects: the copy and the Napoleon III style itself. It consists, especially in the early years, of a mixture of different previous styles: Louis XIV, Boulle furniture; Louis XV for the living rooms: rockery and gilded wood, Louis XVI for the bedrooms; finally Renaissance for the dining rooms. Little by little it will take on its true character: blackened pear wood, mother-of-pearl inlays, small pieces of furniture, trinkets, padded seats.A collection of interior decoration inspired by the Napoleon III period and the beginning of the 20th century, offering furniture and decorative accessories revisited for a unique and inspiring current decoration.

Greco-Roman

Decorative art in the ancient Greco-Roman style, a unique style of decoration including magnificent sculptures, statues, busts, bodies and faces of remarkable craftsmanship.

Cabinet of Curiosities

The cabinets of curiosities are real little scientific museums which aimed to introduce people to the world, and in particular the distant world, at a time when airplanes did not exist. Cabinets of curiosities appeared during the Renaissance, in the second half of the 16th century; a time when we move to another phase of natural sciences, until then based on Aristotle and his metaphysical approach: until the end of the Middle Ages, we consider that there is a natural order, and that it is regulated . The scientists of the Renaissance, for their part, tried to understand, classify, bring all this scattered data, a little fanciful at times, into a more rational framework, which combines technique (discovery of the astrolabe and multiple instruments... ) to science. Have a good trip !

Ethnic Chic

The Ethnic Chic Deco Style.  The ethnic-chic decoration mixes influences and elements from different cultures and times. It's also a mixture of colours, textures and patterns. It's all about harmony.

  • Coral Cup on Base (empty or garnished)

    €320.00

    Magnificent reproduction of a cup made of a flat mushroom coral called "Lithophyllon Repanda", mounted on a 19th century style sandstone base.

    Can be ordered garnished with natural coral fragments under the reference OD1194/2.

    The OD1194/2 coral bowl presented here garnished with a composition of natural coral fragments for a “Still Life” bouquet in the Naturalia style.

    The coral fragments are natural, as for the cut, it is a reproduction in synthetic material, and can be purchased empty under the reference OD1194.

    Coral is actually an animal from the Cnidarian phylum. Corals generally live in colonies of individuals called “polyps” which are “superorganisms”. Each polyp secretes its own exoskeleton; depending on the species, this exoskeleton is hard or soft.

    Our collection of corals made of synthetic material is handcrafted by hand, identically reproducing the texture of these living specimens, most of which are now protected.

  • Huge Agate Slice of 3,7kg

    €6,780.00
    This immense golden slice comes from Brazil, and comes from a Chalcedony geode.
    It is formed by successive deposits of silica and ores or oxides dissolved in water and which infiltrates into the soil.
    When it comes to volcanic soil, as in this case in Brazil, the water sometimes reaches an air pocket which has frozen in the lava when it has cooled. And it forms successive layers over months and years, with lighter or darker lines.
    In this case, the heart is made of hyaline quartz (rock crystal), which allows light to pass through this slice to reveal its unique patterns: golden nodules reminiscent of champagne bubbles...
  • Upper Amethyste Geode Brazil

    €1,100.00
    This deep amethyst from Brazil is actually the upper part of a geode found in its Basalt matrix.
    Very often, by trying to extract it from the mass of volcanic lava where it "grew up", miners break this huge geode. This time, no repair, just the upper part, which shows all the contrast of the purple crystals with the Basalt matrix. 
    Incredible beauty and strength.
    Amethyst is one of the best known minerals on our planet. It is surely the most appreciated for more than 5000 years. This precious stone is part of the family of purple quartz with an intensity which varies according to the quantity of iron and manganese present inside and according to its provenance around the world. The best known come from Brazil but the purest like this one from Uruguay.
    This collectible Amethyst  is a unique piece of exceptional quality.
    Magnificent deep purple color.
    A magnificent unique piece both decorative and with natural powers!

  • Amethyst Geode on Stand - 6,9kg

    €1,740.00

    This Brazilian stone has caught our eye: the contrast of green Basalt with the purple of Amethyst, harmoniously distributed.

    But this time, no repair or reconstruction. Just the stone as it was extracted.

    €3,600.00
    Block of Dactylioceras Athleticum ammonites.
    A magnificent unique piece!

    This large block of stone is 180 million years old since it dates from the Toarcian, at the very beginning of the Jurassic.
    And surely a little German accent, since he comes from the Bayern region.
    However, it is found throughout Europe. The Schlaifhausen site where this block comes from was undoubtedly the shore of a Jurassic sea where empty ammonite shells accumulated. The main advantage of this site is that the soil has remained quite sandy, which makes it easier to clear the gangue. A natural accumulation that was created 180 million years ago!
    The block is presented on a polished brass base.

  • Red Gorgon on Brass Base H32x50cm

    €348.00

    Red gorgon on a brass base.

  • Anamorphosis Napoleon Bonaparte under Globe

    €480.00

    Anamorphosis Napoleon Bonaparte under Globe

    Anamorphosis was born from the work on perspective by Piero della Francesca, a Florentine painter and mathematician of the Quattrocento.

    This Art of secret perspective allows, thanks to a “trompe-l’oeil” technique, to create an impression of reality by restoring a 3rd dimension.

    We were inspired by this technique to create Anamorphoses-Butterflies: at first glance, the eye is charmed by a colorful and poetic flight of butterflies... then suddenly, the unexpected image springs out and reveals itself to the viewer and doubles it perception appears.

    In reality, a master painting serves as a motif for the butterflies, while the butterfly recreates a master painting...

    Presented under a glass globe, so that this anamorphosis does not disperse on your walls!
