Rattan: A World of Elegance and Charm
Located in New York, NY
Rattan furnishings evoke the glamour and laid back elegance of exotic beach houses as well as the informal beauty of plant filled garden rooms and sun dappled verandas.
Long fascinated with rattan's versatility, designer Lulu Lytle examines the enduring appeal of this sustainable tropical palm in RATTAN: A WORLD OF ELEGANCE AND CHARM. The first book in decades to examine the history and craftsmanship of rattan furniture, this insightful tome showcases rattan's appeal through archival images of beautiful interiors including Madeleine Castaing's winter garden in Paris, Michael Taylor's own Californian beach house, the Titanic's Café Parisian and the Billy Baldwin designed Mr. Kennedy's beauty salon in New York City. Rattan's many personalities are explored through its inclusion in settings as diverse as Impressionist paintings, flamboyant nightclubs and pared down contemporary drawing rooms.
A reflection of its inherent beauty and longevity, antique rattan furniture from the nineteenth century is highly collectible, as are rattan pieces created by giants of modern design such as Josef Hoffmann for Thonet, Josef Frank for Svenskt Tenn, Jean-Michel Frank for Ecart, Renzo Mongiardino for Bonacina, Arne Jacobsen for Sika, Paul Frankl and Donald Deskey. Rattan pieces have become iconic and highly prized, including Hiroomi Tahara's Wrap Sofa, Franca Helg's Primavera Chair, and the many iterations of the beloved Peacock Chair. RATTAN also highlights some of the many tastemakers who have embraced rattan--from Marella Agnelli, Babe Paley, and Cecil Beaton to leading interior designers including Jeffrey Bilhuber, Veere Grenney, Axel Vervoordt, and Jacques Grange.

Scott Mitchell Houses
Located in New York, NY
A stunning volume that gathers the California designer's most impressive works to date, from coastal sanctuaries to modern country farms.
A master of his genre, Scott Mitchell is celebrated for his warm approach to connecting the built and natural environment. Sought after for their minimalist, material-driven aesthetic, Mitchell's houses are studies in space, materiality, and light. Emphasizing an elegant spatial order, his projects respond to the natural appeal of their locations, be they bucolic retreats on Long Island or resplendent beach houses overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
The first volume on his work, Scott Mitchell Houses is a sublime exploration of the architectural designer's impressive portfolio of projects. Dynamic compositions of light and shadow with a masterful use of concrete, Mitchell's monolithic forms draw on the surrounding environment via floor-to-ceiling windows that open onto vistas so cinematic that Tom Ford utilized one of Mitchell's homes in his neo-noir film Nocturnal Animals.
Through previously unpublished photographs, readers are given an exclusive view into eight pivotal projects that span the globe from the Hamptons to Melbourne, featuring images by Ross Bleckner, Scott Frances, Trevor Mein, and Steve Shaw...

Detailed Antique Map of Hungary and Transylvania by Tirion, 1753
Located in Langweer, NL
Title: Nieuwe Kaart van’t Koninkryk Hongaryen en Zevenbergen by Isaak Tirion, 1753 – Antique Map of Hungary and Transylvania
Description: This is an antique 1753 map titled *Nieuwe Kaart van’t Koninkryk Hongaryen en Zevenbergen*, created by the notable Dutch cartographer and publisher Isaak Tirion. The map showcases the Kingdom of Hungary and the region of Transylvania (referred to as "Zevenbergen") as they appeared in the mid-18th century. Tirion’s maps are well-known for their clarity, precision, and attention to geographic detail, making them highly sought after by collectors of antique maps.
This map provides a detailed view of Hungary and Transylvania, including borders, towns, cities, rivers, and mountain ranges. It was created using the latest discoveries and updates of the time and reflects the political landscape of the region, which was part of the Habsburg Empire during a period of territorial changes and consolidations. The map’s borders are highlighted with color to distinguish different regions, and significant cities such as Buda, Pest, and Debrecen are clearly labeled.
Isaak Tirion was one of the most prominent Dutch publishers of the 18th century, particularly known for his *Nieuwe en Beknopte Hand-Atlas* (New and Concise Hand Atlas) series, which included a wide range of maps of Europe and beyond. His works were appreciated for their cartographic accuracy and artistic quality.
This map is a valuable piece for collectors interested in 18th-century European maps, particularly those that highlight Central Europe, Hungary, Transylvania, and the Habsburg Empire. It is a fine example of the craftsmanship of Isaak Tirion and offers insight into the historical geography of the region.
Condition: Excellent for its age, with finely preserved hand-coloring and wide margins. Slight edge wear typical of maps from this period.
Effective keywords that may help attract collectors or enthusiasts interested in historical maps of Hungary, Transylvania, and Central Europe:
