Iconic Ritz Paris is auctioning off 10.000 pieces of furniture from the era before its renovation
From bathtubs to sofas and and from Hemingway-era stools to Ritz-monogrammed minibars and bathrobes, the items to be auctioned cover the hotel’s emblematic 120-year history!
Since its inauguration on 1st June 1898, the Ritz Paris has embodied the elegance and intimate luxury synonym of the French “art de vivre”. The warm and glittering Ritz style was immediately adopted by celebrities from around the world, artists, crowned heads and top writers. All of them had their habits, contributing to the myth of the prestigious hotel on Place Vendome.
The auction will be organised by Artcurial and will last from 17th to 21st April 2018. It will be preceded by an exhibition staged by a great Parisian interior designer who will transform, for a week, the salons of Artcurial’s headquarters on the Rond-Point des Champs Elysees.
