"Brass Forever"

brass 
noun \ ˈbras  \

An alloy consisting essentially of copper and zinc in variable proportions.

Prized for its high workability and durability, along with its bright golden color, brass has been used since around the 1st century BCE for various items of societal and decorative value including Roman coinage, West African casts and European religious vessels.

Meljac continues this tradition of craftsmanship and beauty in brass through its use as the base material for many of the products in our collection of exquisite electrical hardware.

“Brass Forever” was the event in honor of the launch of our new partner Meljac North America on Tuesday October 31st in our showroom in Chelsea.

We are happy having you on board!
In a plastic world, brass forever.

"Lay in blue"

Par Excellence and partners were delighted to announce their spring event called “Lay in blue” on May 22nd from 6pm to 8pm in our showroom in Chelsea. The evening featured cocktails by Pernod Ricard and there was the possibility to schedule an appointment with our partners for further questions or more information. As you can guess by the name, the theme for this event was “everything in blue”. The result was a mix of our partners’ pieces, presented in our diverse showroom.

In addition, our partners gave a design talk at ICFF on May 21st and 22nd from 12pm to 1pm at Jacob K. Javits Convention Center.
