Mathieu Lustrerie x Palace of Versailles

The Palace of Versailles and Mathieu Lustrerie teamed up to produce a candleholder inspired by the “King’s torch”. The initial model, with its ribs and round scrolled base, was adopted by the Garde-Meuble de la Couronne in the second half of the 18th century, and from 1752 was used in all the royal residences. Available now for pre-order worldwide, delivery in March 2025. A gift card, to be slipped under the Christmas tree, is sent with the confirmation of your order.
