It is represented by full-length, frontal images of three saints in vestments – Basil the Great, Gregory the Theologian and John Chrysostom with the Gospels in their hands. Everyone's right hand is raised in a gesture of blessing.
All three saints are great hierarchs, authors of liturgical texts, teachers of the Church, outstanding theologians and preachers of their time, the most revered in the countries of the Christian world.

A well-placed antique does more than decorate a room - it gives it authorship. Against a contemporary interior, older objects introduce texture, balance and a sense of permanence that cannot be replicated by newly made pieces alone.
This is the principle behind the LÜRON selection. We look for works that carry historical character with ease, and that feel as convincing in a Paris apartment as they do in a more modern architectural setting.
