About Quel Objet!

Things beautiful and beautifully made, distinctive, sophisticated, and fun.

Things French, with that ineffable style.

Things highly regarded in France, but not yet widely known in the U.S.

Things we discovered in a spring trek in the Pyrénées, in tiny towns in the mountains, in a small family factory in the foothills.

Things created by talented and creative designers and artisans.

Things fabricated by hard-working people in small family businesses.

Things whose origins were traditional designs and motifs or of mundane daily use—Basque and Catalan linens, the ubiquitous rooster, espadrilles,—and had been revived with color, sophistication, or humor.

Things that surprise: striking color combinations, guinea hens of great personality, vases that meander down a table.

And things tasty and pure.
