Fleur de Velours

An exquisite celebration of nature in all its splendor and wonder, the new Automne collection by Larose Guyon highlights the intricate composition of elemental forms. The lighting series is equal parts delicate and bold - elevating artistic vision with noble materials and a timeless sense of luxurious refinement. Verchères, a magical off-island suburb of Montreal Quebec served as an infinite source of inspiration for the collection. There, Larose Guyon drew on treasured natural references - merging nature, art, design, and fine craftsmanship in a jewelry-like triumph of illumination.

One of three exclusive sculptural works crafted in a limited edition of 16, Fleur de Velours recalls the hues and shapes of the exotic Typhina tree. With leaves burnished red during the autumnal interlude and velvet-smooth antler-like branches, the Typhina conjures blissful vibrant images that have colored the memories of the Fleur de Velours' designers. Sold as individual branches, each frond pays homage to the tree's lush foliage in the form of a single brass stem laced with delicate brass-fiber leaves and hand blown glass globes. The whimsical design is crafted by master artisans who pour over every detail - spending approximately 60 hours on each fixture. The Fleur de Velours are ultimately illuminated with a warm candle-like kelvin degree. 

Designed with conscience, a portion of each Automne collection sale will go towards the planting of 1,000 trees through the non-profit organization One Tree Planted. The proud fixture owners will also receive official documentation certifying their arboreal contribution to repairing the climate's balance through improved air quality, restoring ecosystems, and supporting wildlife on this magical planet called Earth.
