Louis XIV / The Louis XIV collection demonstrates the Sun King's love of Renaissance motifs such as strapping, shells, and moresque rendered in a more delicate French manner. The development of the style, reinforced by the Royal Academies, coincided with the king's development of Versailles from a hunting lodge into a grandiose palace. The Louis XIV collection is a celebration of French luxury and artistry that we continue today in the footsteps of our founder, Pierre Emmanuel Guerin.
