Il Viaggio dell’Imperatrice
The Empress’s voyage: telling tales in design
"Once upon a time, when the world was a canvas of uncharted lands and distant seas, an Empress—a woman of unparalleled grace and curiosity—whose heart dreamed something more than the opulent courts and stone walls that surrounded her. The empress did not seek power, but beauty; she wished to learn those stories told by the cultures and landscapes of worlds far beyond her kingdom."
At the heart of the Collezione Droulers lies a passion for discovery. Nathalie and Virginie Droulers are travelers, storytellers and collectors, they journey the world in search of unique pieces and to uncover the extraordinary stories that accompany them. Each trip the Droulers sisters undertake brings them closer to artisans, traditions, and cultures, becoming inspiration for the furniture and objects they conceive. At the core is the work of women – craftswomen, weavers, artists and visionaries – whose hands, united with their hearts and traditions, shape each piece.
Collezione Droulers is the essence of high craftsmanship. Metals are shaped and finished by hand, fabrics are created using ancient techniques, and natural colors infuse warmth and authenticity. The ceramics take on sculptural forms with unexpected finishes, while patterns inspired by distant lands bring life to the surfaces. Every detail reflects the care and creativity of the women who transform raw materials into timeless objects.
Collezione Droulers will debut at Milan Design Week 2025 with eight types of furniture and accessories made from unusual materials.
This is not just interior design; it is a connection with the world and the people who inhabit it. Each piece reflects the touch of a woman's hand, the depth of her story, and the heritage she carries with her – a collection that transforms spaces into living stories.
The timeless charm of the Italian artistry infused and enriched by distant cultures, Collezione Droulers is a carefully curated selection of furniture and objects that are cosmopolitan yet deeply personal.
Each piece of Collezione Droulers shares the spirit of discovery, the strength of female art, and a glimpse of magic found along the way.
