The Art Series Highlights

At the heart of this exclusive series are celebrated collaborations between iconic artists and storied luxury maisons, offering pieces that captivate through both concept and form.

Lladró– Art Editions by Javier Calleja

Spanish artist Javier Calleja reimagines emotional storytelling with You Choose One, a limited-edition porcelain trio that invites whimsy and introspection. Each composition features three evocative characters—Child, Devil Cat, and Angel Cat—rendered in Calleja’s signature aesthetic of innocence and mischief. Every detail, from the specially developed color palette to the glassy, expressive eyes, is hand-finished, making each of the 150 units a rare intersection of craftsmanship and contemporary art.

Bernardaud – Jeff Koons for Bernardaud

Playful provocation meets porcelain perfection in the Jeff Koons for Bernardaud collaboration.

The Ballerinas Coupe Service Plate, inspired by Koons’ Ballerinas sculpture from his Antiquity Series, radiates optimism, beauty, and serenity with its mirrored finish and soft color gradations—imbuing every dining experience with contemporary flair. Also featured is Elephant, a celebration of one of Koons’ earliest inflatable motifs. Translated into porcelain with mirrored textures and translucent colors, the piece recalls both childhood innocence and sculptural innovation. These pieces are designed for the collector who seeks modern relevance within a heritage framework.

Christofle – Christofle Paris x Junichi Hakose

French heritage meets Japanese mastery in a breathtaking fusion of tradition and innovation. Christofle Paris, renowned for its impeccable silversmithing since 1830, unveils an extraordinary collaboration with acclaimed lacquer master Junichi Hakose. This partnership reimagines Christofle’s iconic MOOD collection through the lens of urushi and makie—traditional Japanese lacquer and gilding techniques. The result: seven exquisite, limited-edition creations that are as much works of art as they are symbols of refined living.

Each piece embodies meticulous craftsmanship and deep cultural reverence, from fluttering cherry blossoms of Mt. Yoshino to celestial depictions of dragons and Pegasus. Hakose’s brilliant use of gold powder, mother-of-pearl accents, and ethereal linework transforms the MOOD’s curvilinear form into a canvas of serene elegance. In honoring both the Japanism movement and contemporary artistry, Christofle and Hakose celebrate a legacy of beauty, resilience, and luxury that transcends time.

Lalique – Magritte x Lalique Art Collection

To honor the 125th anniversary of René Magritte, Lalique has transposed the surrealist master’s iconic imagery into crystal form, creating six exquisite pieces that merge art history with artisan legacy. This collaboration captures the poetic absurdity of Magritte’s world—from the enigmatic bowler hat (Le Bouchon d’Épouvante) to the floating apple of Le Prêtre Marié, and the famous pipe from La Trahison des Images, now transformed into crystal objects of contemplation.

Among the most striking is Le Bain de Cristal, where a giraffe appears within an oversized goblet of sanded and polished crystal—a feat of both technical mastery and surrealist homage. Each piece is numbered and handcrafted using the lost-wax technique, highlighting Lalique’s signature play of transparency and form. Together, these works evoke a metaphysical charm that is both timeless and arresting.

Daum – Citrus Collection, Camélia Vase and Magnum Horse

Maison Daum turns to nature for inspiration in its Citrus Collection, a radiant ode to the lemon as both symbol and sculpture. With its Magnum Lemon Vase, towering at 51cm and requiring over 670 hours of artisan work, the collection captures the lush textures and zesty palette of Andalusian groves. From richly detailed lemon slice vases to the gleaming footed bowl composed of green and yellow crystal citrus, this series brings a bright, botanical breath of summer into the home. Crafted using pâte de verre, each piece glows with translucent layers of color, embodying Daum’s unmatched legacy of bringing flora to fine art.

Daum continues its legacy of pâte de verre excellence with the Camélia Vase, a fluid sculpture of blooming florals in soft pastel hues, and the powerful Magnum Horse, a majestic expression of strength in motion. Each piece is a testament to the French brand’s commitment to artistic form and is a testament to Daum’s century-long dedication to art and alchemy in glass.

Artful living begins at Rustan’s. Whether you’re curating a collection or elevating your interiors, the Rustan’s Home Art Series invites you to reimagine your space through the lens of timeless artistry.
