Exemplifying Ligne Roset’s optimistic attitude to new design ideas, the Les Oiseaux vase features a playful illustrative print of a crow. Complimented by the novel form of the vase, this is a piece that would look perfect on the table or mantelpiece of similarly playful interiors, or offer a refreshing contrast to sophisticated spaces.
Designer
Pascal Mourgue
Pascal Mourgue is above all else an artist. He graduated from Boulle school (sculpture) and Ensad (Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs).
He began designing furniture in 1962, while continuing to be a prolific artist. Never openly seeking publicity, Pascal Mourgue has always prized artistic integrity above commercial achievement. This love of art has led him to work in fields as diverse as designing sailing boats for Cartier, crystal objects for Baccarat, architecture, painting and sculpture. It was not until the 1980s that he focused on furniture for the home.
In 1994, a long standing and very fruitful collaboration was born between Pascal Mourgue and Ligne Roset. Calin was his first offering, based on the unusual concept of providing the same level of comfort in a sofa as in a pillow.
