Lotus Arts de Vivre
Lotus Arts de Vivre, being rooted in Asia, is highly inspired by nature and the culture and mythology of the region, making use of noted rare and auspicious naturally occurring materials, such as coconut shells, scarab wings, ebony and precious woods, sea shells, bamboo and teak to create art, just to name the tip of the iceberg of Lotus’ entire material inventory. In terms techniques, the brand also travels throughout Asia in search of the originators or masters of a craft, such as India for gem-cutting, Indonesia for wood carving, Thailand for Niello work, Japan for Makie Lacquer and China for Cinnabar Lacquer.
Every piece in Lotus’ portfolio – Masterpieces, Jewelry, Home Décor, and Accessories – is handcrafted and tells their story and so should their brand. Rolf and Helen von Bueren founded Lotus Arts de Vivre nearly four decades ago and throughout the years, the family, including sons Sri and Nicki, have traveled the world in search of creative inspiration, fabulous materials, and maintaining long-term relationships with some of the most highly skilled craftsmen living. In 2017 we partnered with them to simplify their online costumer experience, redesign their positioning worldwide and reimagine their messaging to reflect their mission to preserve the traditional crafts and ancient cultures from their region.
