Moissonnier Opens in Vancouver

From launching on a foggy day in 1885 en France, French master cabinetmaker, Moissonnier is now expanding its timeless style globally to Shanghai, Chengdu, and now, Vancouver.

The 3,000-square-foot Yaletown space is North America’s first Moissonnier showroom, featuring the brand’s iconic commodes— wide-set, fairytale-like cabinets with scalloped edges and cabriole legs straight outta Beauty and the Beast. Like a good meal, the main event will be complemented by a series of sweet finishings: Venetian chandeliers by Arte Veneziana, Bernardaud fine porcelain, and a collection of luxury lifestyle Assouline tabletop books. Peek into the Moissonnier lifestyle with the showroom’s six revolving vignettes, including a “winter garden” and a library/studio for design consultation. Carve out your own style with Moissonnier’s idiosyncratic and fantasy-fueling 19th century furniture. —Miranda Sam
