A prestigious red crystal column on a marble base

Eric Stepniewski's incredible bronze journey began in 1973 in his hometown Paris, where he started working as an antique dealer. After many years of managing his Gallery, he took over the renowned company specializing in tin plating and antique restoration: Bettencourt.

In 1989, he decided to elevate his manufactory to a higher level and moved to Poland, his parents' homeland, to create his own collections, utilizing his favorite materials: gold, silver, malachite, and lapis lazuli.

Materials

MALACHITE

Malachite is a semi-precious stone originating from the Democratic Republic of Congo. Used in jewelry but also as decoration (vases, columns, clocks, furniture), especially in Russia since the 18th century. It is worth wearing as a bracelet for health benefits due to its anti-rheumatic healing properties. We are pleased to work with a stone that becomes increasingly rare each year.

LAPIS

Lapis is a semi-precious stone from Afghanistan. It has been used since antiquity (Tutankhamun's sarcophagus) and in jewelry. Since the 18th century, it has also been used for furniture, vases, clocks, and various objects.

BRASS

Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, with zinc content up to 40%.

GOLD

Gold is one of the most sought-after materials worldwide. We use it in almost all our creations. Depending on the country and value, it has different karat ratings: 9K, 14K, 18K, and 24K (pure gold). To gold-plate our items and ensure the highest quality for our clients, we use only 24-karat gold via zinc plating method.

CRYSTAL

We mainly use crystal for lamps or vases of various shapes and colors. It is hand-cut by specialized artisans.
