Commissions
What can be commissioned?
Almost anything with a Chinese cultural source that needs authorship and real realisation: a seal, a collector's object, a painting with a secret, a wall, a hall, a destination.

How does it work?
Seven steps from a conversation to a provenance record.
01
Discover
A conversation, free of charge, to establish whether we are the right atelier for the work.
02
Cultural & personal brief
Who it is for, where it will live, what it must mean. Sources are identified and the scope defined.
03
Concept & maquette
A paid design stage: research, drawings, a maquette or material samples. Approval before anything is built.
04
Material & engineering
Structure, weight, mounting, fire and humidity, site constraints — resolved with your architect or designer.
05
Making
In the atelier and with its fabrication partners: clay, kiln, foundry, stone, metal, glass. Progress is documented.
06
Delivery & installation
Crating, insurance, customs, transport and installation by the atelier's team, worldwide.
07
Provenance archive
Certificate, unique work ID, source note, making record and care guide — entered into the private archive.
No. Most commissions begin with a person, a place or a date — not a form. The brief and concept stages exist to find the work.
