Wonderland Of Craftsmanship

On entering the opulent and chic Lotus Arts de Vivre showroom located at City Walk, Dubai, it is difficult to not stand and stare in awe. The flagship boutique of Lotus Arts de Vivre in the Middle East is a spectacular space that showcases exceptional creativity and luxury. The brand, which originated in Thailand, is globally acclaimed for its amazing homeware, bold Asian and animal themed creations made with opulent raw materials, statement jewellery and fashion accessories.

Lotus Arts de Vivre the brainchild of Rolf Von Bueren and his wife, Helen. Growing up in Frankfurt, Germany, in an artisan environment, an appreciation for skilled craftsmanship was instilled in him from an early age and when he moved to Thailand in 1962, he instantly fell in love with the Thai people and their culture. He then travelled extensively around Asia, learning about traditional craftsmanship, filigree, embroidery, and raw materials and was inspired heavily from Asian design motifs, culture and mythology. He then started working closely with the best of the Thai artisans to create jewelry, Home Décor and accessories that are second to none in exclusivity and craftsmanship.

The craftsmen of Lotus Arts De Vivre pay homage not only to the brand’s Thai heritage, but also to Indian Moguls, Indonesian rulers, and Chinese emperors. Seamlessly melding precious metals and jewels with organic materials and bringing to life mythical beasts and ancient tales, Lotus Arts De Vivre also work with India for gem-cutting, Indonesia for wood carving, Thailand for Niello work, Japan for Makie Lacquer and China for Cinnabar Lacquer making each piece from Lotus Arts De Vivre tell a story and reflects a true global citizen who celebrate the finer things in life and the attitude of the Bueren family.
