Description:Rik Storms – more than a passion for authentic building materials. 40 years ago, at young age, Rik Storms started the restoration of very particular buildings: the beguinage of Leuven, the court of Busleyden at the fish market, particular houses, castles and farms. Over the years, Rik Storms started also with transactions and sale of old and antique building materials and restored them with particular care and attention. Storms met during his live the famous architect Raymond Rombouts, a close collaboration grew between them. Storms vision and knowledge about architectural concepts increased a lot. From that moment he was able to place historical building materials in an original and incomparable context. Authenticity and respect for tradition are the main matters for Storms in his constant search for the most beautiful old materials, which he integrates in classic and timeless interiors. |

Description:Since childhood, I love to wander fleamarkets and visit antiques shops seeking for authentic, beautiful and rare objects, a genuine piece of furniture with the right patina or an inspiring still life painting.
I was determined to become an antique dealer and so I studied Art History and Archeology at Namur and Leuven Universities. Shortly after my studies I started working for Christie's. Visiting lots of art collectors and their houses, my love for antiques was emphasized with a passion for beautiful houses and their interior design. Next to my job as a consultant for Christie's, and for more than 10 years now, I open twice a year my house, presenting my latest discoveries. It's always a wonderful experience for me, finding a unique piece, getting inspired by it, travelling different parts of the world, meeting people and discovering their culture and antique objects. I select all kind of objects and furniture. They may be of different periods and styles. They can be simple, elegant or rough, but mostly timeless, genuine, with pure lines, made of an interesting material, of an aesthetic or intruiging character. An item will have a new story depending on the spot you choose for it, it will be strenghten in combination with another piece or it will complete a collection. Assembling and creating a warm atmosphere, an enjoyable and pleasant home with authentic items and so is my passion and I can't wait to share it with you. |

Description:Antique fireplaces The rich scent of crackling timber fills the air, fragrant and evocative on a damp autumn day. Soft light illuminates the intricate carvings of a 15th century mantelpiece and burnished andirons. Looking across the room, one’s eye falls upon a carved marble frieze; delicately wrought antique mirrors reflect the light of the fire, bathing the room in a golden haze. Welcome to the showroom and warehouse of Maison Van den Bogaert Leon, the leading European dealer in antique mantels, fireplaces, antiquefireplaces, architectural elements and objets d’art. Founded fifty years ago by Monsieur Leon Van den Bogaert, this family business, nestled in the Antwerp countryside, is home to the world’s largest collection of antique mantelpieces. With over three thousand mantels in-house, the collection ranges from the 14th century to the mid-war 20th century period; it is a veritable treasure-trove of mantels from chateaus, manor houses, castles and landmark buildings across France and Western Europe. Many of these pieces are museum-quality and would be at home the world’s leading collections of decorative arts. Walking through the Van den Bogaert Leon showroom and their vast warehouse is to move into a time past. In each corner, the eye is delighted and surprised. Here is a delicate Louis XV marble mantel in a deep Burgundian red; there is an austere yet grand stone mantel from the 14th century; here is a dove grey marble mantel of the 17th century with hunting emblems wrought into the stone. Each mantel is an unique piece of work with its own tale. The history and story of each can often be gleaned by the elegant carvings and provenance of the smooth marble stone. Some bear regal coats of arms, others symbols of industry representing rich merchant families and some illustrate the original owners fancy be it hunting, horses, hounds or music. One can spend hours wandering through the warehouse looking at these mantels. The mind wanders as one’s hand glides across the cool polished stone surfaces: Did Cardinal Richelieu warm his hands before this mantel? Perhaps Marie-Antoinette and her ladies-in-waiting stood before another? Alongside the mantels, lies a remarkable selection of exquisite fire-backplates and andirons. The backplates often bear detailed carvings of gallant knights, lords on horseback following their hounds, distinguished family crests and rich religious iconography. Polished and gleaming in the firelight, these magnificent antique treasures are a sumptuous accompaniment to the mantels. While wandering through the warehouse, one must not ignore the andirons - simply elegant or exquisitely rendered Renaissance masterpieces, these brass and silver mounts complete the mantel and its backplate. The andirons are a joy to examine. The carved ones bear faces of court jesters, hounds, horses and sometimes even mythological figures from Griffons to Greco-Roman gods. The simply wrought ones are impressive in their elegant and noble bearing - simple shapes delicately hammered into works of art. Amongst this vast collection of treasures, lies other delights. One finds wonderful marble columns akin to the ancient ones in Palmyra and Athens as well as carved colorful marble urns and basins with glistening and richly veined surfaces. There are elegantly wrought metalworks for baths and basins in the shape of leaping dolphins and creatures of the sea. There is a vast collection of antique terra-cotta and marble flooring waiting to be polished and installed. The selection of objets d’art and architectural elements is seemingly endless. What distinguishes Maison Leon Van den Bogaert from a museum is that everything is for sale. Whether your interiors are contemporary or classic, there are mantels and architectural elements to fit and enhance your rooms. In the following pages, one can see realizations of the mantels in an array of different homes across the world. We invite you to explore and enjoy. By Elizabeth Hartnett. |
