Atelier Maury Since 1987, Atelier Maury has specialised in gilded wood panelling and making painted decorations from a huge range of materials.
The Atelier Maury workshop carries out restoration, creative and decorative work for listed historical monuments, prestigious institutions, museums and interior designers. Through years of experience and know-how Atelier Maury applies traditional techniques in the art of gilding and polychroming with stunning results. Atelier Maury's main ethos is to ensure the upkeep and respect of the heritage of ancient artists; to restore and not reinterpret. Living heritage is also very important to Atelier Maury. Where classic artists were each modern and contemporary in their time, so the company believes we have to consider that traditional techniques serve the modern creations of today. The company believes that there are many great facets to industrial luxury and recognise that we need
the contributions of the new technologies alongside the hand-made processes and ancestral techniques, to continue to convey individual beauty and quality in design. Between Heritage and Modernity, a balance can be achieved. Determined to protect its expertise and apply it in the modern world, research work carried out by the Atelier Maury Workshop has led to development of a new decoration product, the "Toile de Laque®" Toile de Laque® is a lacquered cotton or linen canvas, that provides a genuine and unique texture that recreates the richness and the splendour of ancient lacquers. Designed in the workshop to be easily and quickly installed, it moulds to any surface, wall, decorative panel, furniture, etc, and offers a wide range of colours, patterns and faux finishes (smooth, cracked, embossed textures).
