A vase with gold decorations in the Rococo style for the living room

Eric Stepniewski's captivating journey with bronze began in 1973 in his family’s Paris, where he started working as an antique dealer. After many years managing his own Gallery, he took over the renowned brand specializing in tinning and restoring antiques: Bettencourt.

In 1989, he decided to elevate the manufactory to a higher level and moved to Poland, his parents' homeland, to create his own collections, utilizing his favorite raw 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 as well 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 proud to work with a stone that becomes increasingly rare each year.

LAPIS

Lapis is a semi-precious stone from Afghanistan. Used since antiquity (King Tutankhamun’s sarcophagus) and in jewelry. Since the 18th century, it has 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 in the world. We use it in nearly 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 galvanization.

CRYSTAL

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