La Galerie du 19M traveled from Paris to take up residence in the very heart of Tokyo, in the Mori Tower, highlighting the richness of both Japanese and French heritage and the modernity of their contemporary interpretations.
Conceived as a space of wonder, surprise, and dialogue, la Galerie du 19M Tokyo offered a free inspiring and
playful journey open to all, introducing the unique savoir-faire of le19M’s Maisons d’art through an immersive path.
Maison Michel contributed to the creation of two exceptional creations.
The first is a poetic installation of traditional lanterns, crafted through ancestral techniques using wooden molds
drawn from our rich archives. This collaboration allowed artist Kojima Shoten to explore and reinvent new forms.
The second is an exceptional cap with long ear flaps, conceived by artist Konomad and shaped in our Parisian
workshops on a felt base. The artist added strands of hair to the piece, creating a unique interpretation.
Founded by CHANEL in 2021 in Paris, le19M is a unique initiative that brings together nearly 700 passionate
artisans and experts in fashion and decoration. The venue also houses la Galerie du 19M, an open space
dedicated to transmitting and showcasing artisans’ unique skills in dialogue with guest creatives.
