This past weekend, Table Love came to Paris not to a shop, not to a fair, but to an apartment. A real one, with light coming through tall windows, objects on shelves that have stories, and the kind of quiet that only certain rooms in Paris manage to hold.

We in a beautiful apartment in rue de Solférino, in the 7th, joined by two people whose work we have long admired.

 

 

Cecilia of Cecilia’s Treasures grew up in Rome, in a family where tableware, textiles gathered on travels, and inherited objects were simply part of daily life. Her grandmother had an exacting eye. Her mother’s home was layered and full of history. From all of this came a deep fluency in craftsmanship and beauty and a curatorial sensibility that is entirely her own.

 

Gaia and Daria Gentiloni Silverj, the Italian sisters behind You Like It Chic, split their lives between Paris and Milan. Gaia sources antique lamp bases from local markets and auction houses. Daria works with Italian artisans to turn them into something new. Together they make lighting that is handcrafted, specific, and quietly extraordinary.

 

It felt right, the three of us together. Objects with histories. Things made by hand. A shared belief that a home should be lived in, not staged.

 

We brought the new season — linens block-printed in Rajasthan, tablecloths we have been working on for months, napkins that began as sketches and became something we are genuinely proud of. All of it laid out in rooms that already knew how to hold beautiful things.

 

The cocktail evening on Tuesday filled up. The three days that followed were full of conversation about tables, about homes, about the way certain objects accumulate meaning over time.

 

We are grateful to everyone who came. And to Cecilia and Gaia, for sharing their world with us for a few days.

 

More Paris to come. For now, back to Stockholm and back to the making.
