Hand-Embroidered Straw
Marquetry Mirrors
A collaboration between Lucie Touré and the Ateliers Lison de Caunes
Born from the dialogue between Lucie Touré and the Ateliers Lison de Caunes, this collection of embroidered straw marquetry mirrors celebrates the meeting of two rare savoir-faire. On surfaces entirely composed of hand-cut straw marquetry—crafted by the Ateliers Lison de Caunes, renowned guardians of this ancestral technique—Lucie Touré brings her singular language through the embroidery of glass beads and floral motifs, delicately stitched by hand.
Each piece is the result of meticulous gestures, where straw is patiently selected, oriented, and assembled to capture light, before being adorned with embroidered details that introduce texture, rhythm, and emotion. The mirrors transcend their functional purpose to become objects of contemplation—works of art that carry the memory of time, the intelligence of the hand, and the continuity of craftsmanship passed down through generations.
This collection tells a story of heritage and creation, where ancestral techniques are not preserved as relics, but reinterpreted as living expressions of contemporary artistry.
