{La Vie en Rose - MERCI Janny!}

Already on May 19, I did introduce you to this remarkable artist, as I posted this: LOOK who's in the French Style of May/June 2011. Janny van der Vliet is Dutch but she lives in France. I was so thrilled to find her in an early May, 2009 issue from the Dutch magazine Ariadne at Home. Pieter's niece and Goddaughter Myriam did bring the magazine when she came to the USA for his special birthday. Doing some searching I found Janny's French blog: Roses Pour Toujours and later the English version: Paper Roses Old Style.  Just click on all the hyperlinks to learn more about this incredible lady and her Paper Roses!

Well, she did mail me a white paper rose (my choice...) as a special gift and it arrived in The Netherlands at our dear friends' home early September. I must admit that she also is an experienced shipper, as the rose was in perfect shape; she knows how to prevent any shifting or crushing. So in case you too would love to purchase a rose or even several roses, just ask her and she will take care of it. Now let me take you to our balcony where the sun was out after several rainy days. Yesterday I was lucky to find perfect light for capturing this beautiful Paper Rose for you. Enjoy!

With Belle Inspiration, I do say Ooh-la-la when it comes to ROSES, PEARLS and more ROSES...

Some Gypsophylla or Baby's Breath in a French Gien Rose pitcher creates a lovely setting for this perfect paper rose from Janny!

On a tablecloth that I made out of a twin sheet from Le Jacquard Français bed linens with peach roses...

I will leave you now without any text... just enjoy this pretty rose.

She has a faint pink blush, from all her surroundings I guess, but it is a pure white one!

Besides, it is the FIRST Paper Rose from Janny that has made it into the New World; all the way across the Atlantic Ocean to the USA!!!

Pour moi au moins est certaine ROSES POUR TOUJOURS... et MERCI Janny!

For me certainly ROSES FOREVER...

La Vie en Rose

{LIVE IN AIR YOU LOVE}

The first Lampe Berger lamp was created in 1898 by Maurice Berger, a pharmacy dispenser, to purify the air in hospital wards. Lampe Berger, the leader in innovations for air care, cleans the room air by destroying unwanted odors and providing long-lasting fragrance, due to its exclusive diffusion system. By eliminating unpleasant smelling molecules (tobacco, cooking, etc.), Lampe Berger cleans the interior air of your home. This video will explain the use of Lampe Berger lamps which are available at my Zen Cart powered boutique on line: Spectrenoir. Look below for some samples of Antique and Vintage Lampe Berger and if you wish to have info on any one of them, let me know...

{Vintage French Limoges Lampe Berger by Camille Tharaud}

As promised on August 30, that I would list the other two rose enameled Lampe Berger lamps in about two weeks, here is finally the second one. From France again, comes this beauty of a Lampe Berger with an artful Anémones bottle, this time done by Camille Tharaud 1963-1971. On page 134 of the book Lampes Berger: A Century of History by Gérald Vilcocq you can read more about the history of Charles Ahrenfeldt and Camille Tharaud; as both have made this lamp. It is a stunning bottle and in perfect condition as well; complete with ajoured brass crown, snuff cap and burner wick. That is remarkable for such a lamp, being half a century old! This Camille Tharaud Limoges lamp is slightly taller than those with the same roses from Charles Ahrenfeldt. This was available at  my Zen Cart powered on line botuique: Mariette's Back to Basics. 

Tomorrow's post, I will show you a video from Lampe Berger: LIVE IN AIR YOU LOVE.

Beautiful raised enamel work!

Anémones on page 134 of the book.
Anemone tomentosa Robustissima is the botanical name of these flowers.
Also called Japanese Anemone, Windflower. 

Monsieur Gérald Vilcocq shows this on page 134 of his book.

A detail of the Anémones...

Part of the back side, beautiful detail too.

C Tharaud (for Camille Tharaud) with Limoges France and Berger made in France Limoges. All in gold with the initials CA to the side.

Sorry Sold out...

On the side of the brass neck is engraved: Made in France. And on the opposite side: Lampe Berger.

 

This is the book I got from publisher NOÈME

I could not scan that part, as this hard cover is too large, but it is written under the Lampe Berger at the bottom.
