the METROPOLITAN
MUSEUM of ART
The highly successful The Met x Eichholtz collection is a
collaboration with The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New
York and brings historic works of art to the home in a new,
immersive way as never before seen. Each product has been
designed to complement a wide variety of interior aesthetics
and is intended to coordinate with other designs offered by
Eichholtz. Every piece in The Met x Eichholtz collection has
been handcrafted by expert craftspeople using the finest
materials and is now available for purchase internationally.
Chief Creative Officer Edwin van der Gun of Eichholtz and his
design team were given unparalleled access to explore the
galleries and select artworks that now form the inspirational
foundation for the collection. Ancient civilizations, including
Egyptian, Greek, and Roman art, as well as Medieval works
serve as a direct influence for the sculpture reinterpretations
in the collection. The textures, color palette and architectural
flourishes – including the instantly recognizable front steps of
The Met – are echoed in the silhouettes of the furniture such
as sofas, occasional tables, cabinetry, and lighting.
The Met x Eichholtz collection range is an homage to history
and culture, retaining the simple, elegant, and luxurious
lifestyle aesthetic that remains at the heart of every Eichholtz
design. Equally suited to clients building a clean, modern
interior, and those pursuing a traditional sensibility, The
Met x Eichholtz collection has been designed with versatility
in mind, suiting a wide variety of luxury interiors.
