Atsunobu Katagiri

A flower arrangement artist, his Ikebana style ranges from traditional to contemporary art approach. Atsunobu Katagiri has collaborated with many artists in different fields and has written extensively on the subject of ikebana. From small wildflowers to large-scale installation works using his long-term theme, cherry blossoms, his art deepens the "animistic" aspect of Ikebana's origin while creating spaces through flowers.

Flowers

Nature is one of the Maison’s sources of inspiration, imbuing creations with vitality and poetic grace. Fascinated by the constant metamorphoses that enliven the plant world, the Maison echoes the infinite forms and nuances of flora, crystallizing the lightness of a bouquet or the freshness of wildflowers. Among a dazzling, eternal spring, poppies commune with daisies, while lilies of the valley mingle with cherry blossoms, all transformed into jewels by the Mains d’Or™ in the Place Vendôme workshops. 

Rose de Noël, Frivole, Lotus, Extraordinary Dials… so many collections which nowadays give pride of place to flowers. Corollas of stones and diamonds deploy themselves in the Maison's garden.
