De Beaux Souvenirs


I recently discovered the wire work of a France based artist, Claire Rougerie, and enjoyed it thoroughly. She has been a collector of various antiques and vintage fabric since she was age 15. She now makes use of those items in her work. Notice the white vintage lace she incorporated in the piece. This wire owl has handformed wire lettering which reads “La reine des bois” which translates to “The queen of the forest”.
