Palomas® & Alexandre Benjamin Navet brighten up the festive season with a gourmet work of art.
For the festive season, Palomas® - Maison de Haute Chocolaterie - and artist Alexandre Benjamin Navet have combined their creative worlds to create an artistic and gourmet work of art.
The Collaboration
« Like my colored pencils, Palomas chocolates awaken in me the taste of childhood. The colorful palette of La Maison Palomas sweets stirs my sweet tooth. The box I designed illustrates my joy after tasting its wonders » says Alexandre Benjamin Navet.
The creative conversation with Alexandre Benjamin Navet was sunny, playful and gourmet. With his colorful, instinctive line, Alexandre Benjamin succeeded in bringing to life a festive table that perfectly illustrates the moments of pleasure shared around Palomas® gourmet treats. His drawings reflect our shared values of enthusiasm, beauty and sharing.
The Cases
The highlight of this collaboration is the creation of seventy-five boxes numbered by the artist's hand, among the largest ever created by Maison Palomas®.
Each box is packed with the tasty specialties with which Maison Palomas® has conquered the palates of fine chocolate connoisseurs since 1917, including the famous Palets de Fourvière®.
Alexandre Benjamin Navet
Alexandre Benjamin Navet works in the great tradition of French decorative arts, poetically designing smiling, light, brightly colored worlds.
A versatile and unclassifiable creator, Alexandre Benjamin Navet, winner of the Grand Prix Van Cleef & Arpels de la Villa Noailles in 2017, has already transformed the Assemblée Nationale, the Hôtel des Arts de Toulon and New York's Fifth Avenue into festive settings.
The vibration of his brushes revives the spaces he decorates, like a hymn to summer and the Mediterranean light he loves. His infectious enthusiasm reflects a curiosity and energy that have remained intact since his youth.
