Discover the playful sophistication of Art Deco porcelain bibelots, as showcased in the Two Red Roses Foundation’s striking collection. These whimsical objects—ranging from figural liqueur decanters and powder boxes to inkwells and perfume lamps—blend humor, elegance, and functionality. Created in the golden era of French modernism, they were designed to delight while serving practical purposes in the home.
At the heart of the collection are pieces from Robj Paris, a firm celebrated for its imaginative designs and collaborations with leading artists and European porcelain manufacturers. From kilted Scotsmen and ballerinas to monks and businessmen, each piece carries a unique character and charm. The museum’s cafe and bar—free to enter—now serve as an accessible showcase for these vibrant, conversation-starting pieces.
Other key contributors include Aladin Luxe, Editions Etling, and Georges Bastard, whose ateliers produced similarly eye-catching works marked by bold forms, stylized color, and sculptural detail. Collectors and design enthusiasts will recognize the craftsmanship and cultural resonance of these artifacts, which capture the spirit of the Art Deco era in miniature.
Whether you're a seasoned collector or simply curious, these bibelots invite a closer look at how artistry and utility converged in early 20th-century Europe. Their charm lies not just in their form, but in the story of modern design they so vividly tell.
