It brings together the talents of today and tomorrow to create history and set trends in the world of design. The number of participants exceeds three thousand.
Paris Nord Exhibition Centre areaVillepinte Exhibition Centre, where Maison & Objet is taking place, is almost 20,000 square meters. On the first day, we walked around only a small part - just one pavilion, and now we are ready to highlight the main things to tell you about. And, of course, to show you. Roberto Cavalli Home Luxury Tableware The Italian brand Roberto Cavalli immediately catches the eye with the golden shine of the tableware presented. The effect is simply stunning - the patterns of this luxury are conveyed so clearly, which will look perfect at royal receptions. Everything is made only from the best materials, such as fine bone china, crystal, silver and other expensive metals. Among the new products of this year, new prints on plates, knives and candlesticks in the form of golden snakes are presented here.
Hanbel Since its foundation in 1991Spanish furniture and decor brand Hanbel continues to grow and develop. The company's employees constantly keep their finger on the pulse of achievements and now prefer a classic approach to creating their collections. That is, now the brand does not look at transient trends, but is focused exclusively on artistic design, which will always be popular.
Guadarte The Spanish company Guadarte waswas founded in 1980 in Seville by the entrepreneur Manuel Muñoz and initially produced ceramic tiles. Now it has grown, producing furniture, glassware, fireplaces and interior accessories. Guadarte took the same place in the fourth pavilion as six months ago. But the Spaniards did not demonstrate new products this time, deciding to wait until April, when the Milan Salone del Mobile exhibition begins. It is there that the 2017 collections will be presented, but for now the brand's classics and popular products of recent times were submitted for general consideration.
Serip So original decorativeYou won't find interior lighting anywhere else - the Portuguese brand is truly the best in the world in this area. Natural forms of metal and steel, brass and silver - Serip masters take on unique projects on individual orders, manually and by casting into earthen forms, bringing them to perfection. The main principle is to attract attention. And it really works! This year, the brand presented three new collections: Folio (leaves and branches), Corall (multi-colored droplets on branches) and Geyser (stunning beauty right at the entrance).
Jansen Furniture Representative of thisDutch company producing furniture and decor items, told us that before getting here, all these elements made a round-the-world trip. The thing is that the factory is located in Indonesia, and the materials (wood, etc.) are taken exclusively from Europe. We were also shown new models that, according to the manufacturer, will be interesting for the Russian buyer. These are all kinds of chests of drawers, tables on elegant legs, armchairs and animal figurines. We especially liked the bear and the pig.
Ralph Lauren Lighting Collection Luxurylamps from the famous American manufacturer will always find connoisseurs. Crowds of people at the stand appreciated the elegance and grace of each individual model. From the latest collections, wall sconces, a lamp with a black lampshade and a huge chandelier are presented here. But that's not all! The newest and most interesting did not reach Maison&Objet 2017, but will definitely be shown to the public this year.

Trussardi Home Linen and Roberto CavalliThe collections of the elite Italian brand Trussardi Home Linen are made in calm soft tones that will appeal to many. Only the kindest dreams will be dreamed on such bed linen. Maybe that is why the French footballer David Trezeguet began collaborating with the clothing division of Trussardi? In contrast, Roberto Cavalli Home Linen prefers brighter colors and combinations.

That's why the stand is filled with such a variety of styles and sophisticated elegance that can enrich the bedroom of any home.

Mastro Raphael Two different beds stand on the leftand to the right of the entrance to the booth of this Italian brand. And on the textile products of each of them you can find a bee - the famous logo of the factory. Mastro Raphael this year presented five new collections of linen and fabrics made of velvet, linen and other soft materials. Some popular elements of the products even returned in new colors. It is worth paying attention to such names of collections as Api Cultur (linen and bedspreads), Pergamon (pillows), Bulford and Regina (linen), as well as the same Kerman, which has already become a classic of the brand.
Zanetti Murano From textiles we headlook at birds and fish made of Murano glass - the Zanetti Murano brand. It was found at the ITA stand - the Italian State Agency for the Internationalization of Italian Companies and Enterprises (ICE). Italian glassblowers surprise this time too!
Baroque International Here are collected, as never beforestrange, baroque style items. The Dutch brand places the main emphasis on items made of nickel, silver, glass and polymers, which are stylized as the 18th century, when such luxury was simply obligatory in the chambers of noble ladies. There is everything to decorate the interior: book boxes and cute little angels, blankets and lampshades, trays and clocks, as well as various animal figurines, including the symbol of the next year (a dog). The items are made using the technique of the 18th-19th centuries by hand and are artificially aged to create the effect of a truly antique item.

Riviera Cashmere This Italian brand isMaison & Objet for the first time. The production is concentrated in Genoa, and he came to the exhibition to find new ways of development. Let everything work out for this manufacturer, let it be as easy and soft as his cashmere, which is very pleasant to iron!
La Perla Home by Fazzini OriginallyItalian (Italy again, yes!) brand La Perla Home produced women's underwear. But then, having expanded its range, it began to work under the wing of the family company Fazzini, which offers customers bedding, bath, and kitchen textiles. Linen, cotton, satin, silk, and faux fur - all items are pleasant to the touch, and a large assortment includes not only single-color or two-tone elements, but also colorful ones, and even with embroidery. Of the new collections, it is worth paying attention to the following: Camelie, Argo, Clorofilla, Lavanda, Orfeo, Cleo. They are recommended to Russian consumers.
Blumarine, Blugirl and Svad Dondi PerhapsThe editor was very tired by the end of the first day, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why he went to the stands with soft beds, pillows, blankets, textiles and sheets. These Italians, like all the others, demonstrate such quality and elegance that it is impossible to pass by! Classic, elegant and modern style, with a wide range of jacquard and printed fabrics, as well as many other interesting elements - you can sleep on such linen for a long time and in the most favorable way.
