I came across this article William the Conquerer last week on the website fetch and thought I would share it with you. It brought back wonderful memories of the first time that I met William, trips to his shop in London, visiting his Cotswold country house (see earlier posts for my most memorable 4th of July picnic).
Years back I fondly remember receiving a crystal champagne flute with an invitation to come and preview his line during market week in New York City. It was definitely a "Things that catch my eye, make me stop in my tracks and I 'd love to own" moment. It was by far one of the prettiest champagne flutes I had ever seen. Now many years and flutes later, I still love and am in awe of William's timeless and very cool style.

I'm a big fan of William Yeoward's work. I love all the parts, especially the elegance that transmits through colors and volumes. I think it would match perfectly with the elegant Koket’s console Orcheadea. Koket is a brand of furniture that I met recently. It has a unique and glamorous collection and is highly influenced by the decorative arts and fashion. Take a Look!
