The Louis XVI Style, Today

The Louis XVI style emerged in the late eighteenth century as a reaction to the sinuous lines of Rococo: straight lines, classical proportions, an elegance that is more restrained yet no less precious.

In our workshops we reinterpret this language for contemporary homes — fluted legs, hand-carved ribbon and garland motifs, gold leaf finishes applied with the same technique used two centuries ago.

Today's Louis XVI lives alongside brighter, more open spaces: a neoclassical console beside floor-to-ceiling windows, a dining room that blends traditional carving with lighter palettes.

It is a style that speaks to those who seek timeless elegance — furniture capable of crossing decades without ever feeling dated. The true definition of classic luxury.
