New collection: Jean de Merry textiles

Jean de Merry has always been committed to preserving traditional construction methods with their furniture collections. The California-based company, started in 2001 by Christian D. Maroselli and Jean de Merry, is perhaps less known for its textile collection, which extends the brand’s philosophy of preserving tradition and the sophistication of classic construction. Using bygone weaving techniques, luxurious hand-woven fabrics come together to create a collection that explores texture, scale, tonality and the natural beauty of the materials.


Working mostly with wools and cottons, the core collection also includes offerings in bamboo, mohair, cashmere, alpaca and recycled polyester. Here's a look at the latest additions to the line:

Product Pick: See Yourself in the Ramo Mirror


Jean de Merry and Christian D. Maroselli founded the namesake furniture line Jean de Merry in 2001 with a mission to uphold the craft of a bygone era.


From a small French town where generations of de Merry’s family operated a tanning business for four centuries, to creating a visionary home collection manufactured at his Los Angeles workshop, Jean de Merry has grown into an French Deco-inspired, artisanal line producing pieces that are timeless and anchored by quality and craftsmanship.


American craftsman trained in age-old French techniques apply their knowledge to wood veneers, leather, shagreen, parchment and bronze. Textile, glass and mirror manufacturing was launched this year, and the birth of the Ramo Mirror came to fruition.


The Ramo Mirror is a hand-forged metal frame with antiqued fold finish with crystal cabochons in an emerald finish with a Jean de Merry mirror with antiqued mercury finish in the center.


See yourself in the Ramo Mirror at the Jean de Merry showroom at the DDB.
