This year Maison Rapin opens its doors to showcase its new creations at an exclusive showroom from Thursday, September 5 to Saturday, September 14, 2024. Remaining true to its baroque aesthetic, Maison Rapin offers a unique fusion of historic twentieth-century creations and contemporary works. The brand creates a universe where iconic creations by great twentieth-century artists, such as Robert Goossens, famous for his collaborations with haute couture houses, or goldsmith Jean Després, are presented alongside unique contemporary works. These pieces are often described as "jewel furniture" because of their craftsmanship and precious aesthetics.

Founded by Philippe Rapin, a passionate antique dealer, with the vision of creating a space where design history meets contemporary creation, Maison Rapin stands out for its selection of rare 20th-century pieces, combined with exclusive modern works. Philippe Rapin wanted to redefine luxury by celebrating both craftsmanship and innovation, creating a brand that links timeless elegance and avant-garde design.
