Mantels

Suzanne's collaboration with Chesney's stems from a joint appreciation for fine craftsmanship, exquisite materials and sophisticated design. From her passionate travels throughout Italy, France and England, Suzanne was inspired by the decorative arts and ornamental vernacular in each country, as well as by her own extensive use of antique architectural elements. This has resulted in a collection of timeless designs that fit a wide variety of design vocabularies, from traditional to contemporary.
