A Paris Table: Ceramics, Linen, Paper, and Form
Four makers, one shared language of material, history, and craft.
Some objects are best understood in relation to one another.
A ceramic bowl placed on linen. A printed paper resting nearby. A piece of jewelry catching light at the edge of the table. Each material carries its own history, but together they form something more complete, a composition shaped by hand, time, and intention.
At BON TON goods, we often bring together makers whose work shares a common sensibility, even when their disciplines differ. In this pairing, ceramics by Sylvie Saint André Perrin meet the woven linens of Charvet Éditions, the printed works of Antoinette Poisson, and the sculptural jewelry of Mikkel Brøgger.
Clay and Movement
The ceramics of Sylvie Saint André Perrin begin with earth itself. Working in the tradition of terre mêlée, she blends naturally pigmented clays to create marbled surfaces that run through the entire body of each piece.
The result is not decoration, but structure. Patterns emerge from within, shaped by the movement of the material rather than applied to it.
Placed on a table, these works introduce a sense of rhythm and depth. No two are alike, and each carries its own internal composition.
Linen and Line
Woven in Armentières since 1866, Charvet Éditions linens carry a different kind of structure, one defined by thread and tension.
Originally known as the “City of Canvas,” Armentières produced textiles designed for durability and daily use. Today, Charvet continues this lineage, creating linens that feel both grounded and refined.
The striped patterns introduce a graphic clarity that contrasts beautifully with the organic movement of the ceramics. Together, they create a balance between control and fluidity.
Paper and Pattern
In Paris, Antoinette Poisson revives the tradition of eighteenth-century domino papers, printed and painted entirely by hand.
Their work introduces another layer of visual language. Repeating motifs, historic patterns, and subtle color variations create surfaces that feel both decorative and archival.
Placed alongside ceramics and linen, these patterns extend the composition outward, connecting object to surface, and surface to space.
Form and Presence
The jewelry of Mikkel Brøgger introduces a final element: form reduced to its essence.
Having studied and exhibited in Paris, his work shares a sensitivity to proportion and material that aligns naturally with these French traditions.
Placed within the composition, the pieces act as points of focus. They catch light, anchor the eye, and bring a human scale to the arrangement.
