Midnight in the garden of Versailles

The holidays bring their frosty touch to the gardens of Versailles, I mean, D Porthault...  Carefully clipped boxwood topiaries dusted with snow and glowing lights below a hand painted midnight sky create a wintry atmosphere around the cherub sculpture centerpiece bedecked in the latest of D. Porthault's luxurious linens.  The side windows  also carried the frosty theme.

The interior dining table featuring linens embroidered with silver and gold thread along with D Porthault's signature monogram candles.

Holiday de Porthault

This year's Christmas at D. Porthault windows on Park avenue celebrate the season with a Christmas tree shaped white custom-made etagere designed by Geoff. The front surface of the unit is decorated with sculpted paper leaves, scrolls and ribbons. The floor is hand painted with a similar motif in white and gold.  Filling the shelves are the latest in Porthault's beautiful hand embroidered sheets, and custom color-coordinated terry towels and candles. Behind the unit a cascade of traditional Christmas lights add a touch of holiday sparkle and cheer.

Heart to Heart

For cupid's special holiday with his ever-ready arrow directed at the hearts of lovers everywhere, Geoff designed a heart target (complete with golden arrows) to make that cherub's job easier! And when you cross you heart and hope to fly at Steuben's Madison Avenue flagship, you'll find a delightful heart shaped piece of crystal to focus your love, clearly.
