Shopper's Diary: Cire Trudon Opens in New York
From Francesca October 29, 2010
Modelled after the Hall of Mirrors at Versailles, the first US outpost of venerable Paris-based candle makers Cire Trudon is located belowground at 54 Bond Street (within the landmark Bouwerie Lane Theater building), in an atmospheric lair done up with a mix of aged French-made mirrors, vintage finds from Brimfield, and furniture made by Amish craftspeople. The impossible-to-resist fragrances include Roi Soleil (featuring "vapors of wax, candelabras, and palace"), La Marquise ("powdered air of a delicious boudoir"), and Carmelite ("perfume of mossy old stonewalls"). Go to Cire Trudon to view the range.
N.B. The candles are available online through Barney's New York.
Above: Cire Trudon's candles are made from vegetal wax (a mix of palm, rice, soy, and copra oils) with pure cotton wicks.

Tabletop: Ceramics by Virginia Graham
From Sarah October 29, 2010
British ceramicist Virginia Graham's eclectic tabletop pieces have a distinct Queen-Victoria-meets-Alice-in-Wonderland air. Graham works from Fireworks Clay Studios in Cardiff and is inspired by "teapots and tea services, because they are the ultimate in collectible ceramics; I am fascinated by the way in which these objects, which were originally intended for use, are often collected and displayed behind glass, never to be used." Her work—which has been exhibited at the Victoria & Albert Museum and featured in Vogue and Elle Decoration—is available at Mint in London; for other stockists, go to Virginia Graham.
