“Pasamenterie”:  For those of you who are not in the know, this is a word that can only be described as ridiculous because it describes something that has the a limited use, but expresses a wealth of choices in the world of interior decor.

The part of Paris that is most hidden, the secrets of decor, the delights in extra details are very particular to the French.  With a flourish and a smile, they say, “but of course” and then you know you have entered into the world of ARTIFICE.   They are, the best of what we consider to be extraordinary.  They are, in a word, the best of ARTIFICE.

This summer we’ll be all over France, celebrating the life, culture, and of course, the ARTIFICE of life.
