This year is a special one. Not because I could visit it only for one day (but what a day! From its opening to its closing!), but because we are in a difficult economical moment and the market has big problems.

I hope my remarks can help somebody who has a shop or anyone who wants to change his furniture or house, or maybe only add something to the things he belongs at the moment.

Beccara: a Spanish company, that had some problems in the past, arrived to the exposition with a smaller stand than it had before but with the will to restart.

Jardin d’Ulysee: it has some problems in the past as well and it was added to the group Camptoir de famille. There is a look to the future here as well.

Other companies face the difficult moment making its stand smaller. Good! This is a brave decision and full of positivity!
\r\n \r\nPHOTO1560 PHOTO1561 \r\n \r\n
There are also companies that people talk about saying they have big economic troubles but that come to the exposition as they used to, with big stands, full of energy and positivity. In this way they want to say they are healthy and the gossip about their difficulties aren’t’ true.
\r\n \r\nPHOTO1562 PHOTO1563 \r\n
And to finish there are some companies that are not there. Missing.
I remarked that many companies don’t want to risk with new items, they don’t know the reaction of the market to these ones and they prefer to work with the usual sure items. This situation is similar to our behavior: we buy but with a lot of prudence.

You can find more news in the small companies showing their production. For example a small shop from Luberon in France that produces Christmas stars and trees, made of old fabric and jute, with lights all around, very nice! Or a woman from Udine who creates postcards for different occasions with guardian angels. They are of great taste and can be a special gift.

Blanc d’Ivoire, a French company that I’ve been following for years, once specialized about bed linen, has developed recently and shows a big complete selection of furniture, lamps, fabric, plates, chairs, etc. Its collection shines with its soft colors and it is really elegant. There is even a special corner dedicated to the country look.

Flamant (people who know me has already heard this name many times because I love this company in a special way) proposes its collection of furniture that plans and realizes by itself, classical items with something new, actual colors. In other words: you can count on its elegance, its perfection in showing itself. It is always the same company with its impeccable personal line. There are two stands of this company. One is dedicated only to textile items; you can find bed linen, soft towels, bedcovers and many other things of this kind. The other one is the main stand divided into many parts according to the different setting: furnishing for the sea, for the mountain, country style and the classical style: elegant, simple and warm. No, don’t think I’m paid to write all these good things, but I love this company and I worked with it for many years (more than 18), so I go on loving it.

In the main I can say that the first day there were less people at the exhibition in comparison to the previous years, but, as my husband always says, you have to balance the accounts only at the end.
\r\n \r\nPHOTO1580 PHOTO1581 \r\nPHOTO1582 PHOTO1583 \r\n
I heard a lot people talking Italian and German (and French of course) at the Maison & Object and for me this means that people have faith in the future and have the will to bring new items for YOU to the shops for the next season.
\r\n \r\nPHOTO1584 PHOTO1585 \r\nPHOTO1586 PHOTO1587 \r\n \r\n
Of course, if our time weren’t so hard all the companies would be very happy to risk and they would propose easily never used items.
\r\n \r\nPHOTO1588 PHOTO1589 \r\nPHOTO1590 PHOTO1591 \r\n
For me it was a nice exposition as usual, I got energy there and I want to share with you some photos.
Enjoy yourself!

Paris is always Paris and the exposition Maison & Object is a MUST to learn new trends, the colors that are cool and the mood of the moment.
