Karen Brode of Whip It Interior Design at Christofle Galleria.
I recently had the pleasure of being invited to a launch party of Karen Brode. It was for her launch party of Whip It Interior Design in Houston. It was held at Christofle in The Houston Galleria.
I was not aware that Kristofle had jewelry as well as art and crystal.
I was impressed and I already am a lover of fancy little things that serve not purpose except to be lovely, so I was in heaven. Christofle has a factory in France and everything is made by hand there. I received a lesson in metals and high end jewelry making while I was there!
The housewares and decor items were exceptional. This horse sculpture was beautiful and although I am not a snake person, I appreciate the artistic design and detail of this snake and it would make an exceptional art piece for someone. Like, I don’t know…I see it on the desk of George Soros. The horse would be more my style, but to hear about all the hands that touch each item that is crafted in France is not surprising because you can feel the quality from across the room.
The Mood Pod is the newest craze in luxury flatware. Kris Jenner is even a partner of the brand, showing off her set on her Instagram account. You can spend over $1000 and up to $13,000 depending on the one you chose. You would think the price is crazy but then you touch them. You can feel quality. Smoothness and depth. Art.
The jewelry was the same. The necklace Karen was wearing felt smooth and you could literally feel the difference between mass produced jewelry against this.
Karen’s website is linked above and she might be just the person to call if you’re wanting a home holiday revamp and advice on home decor.
