Maison Balzac

Maison Balzac is a renowned homeware brand founded by Elise Pioch Balzac, a French-born entrepreneur based in Sydney. It all began with a collection of candles that were inspired by the scents of Pioch Balzac's childhood in the south of France. What started as a small idea soon blossomed into an internationally renowned brand known for its whimsical and handmade homeware objects designed for everyday life.

Initially focused on candles, Maison Balzac has expanded its offerings to include a stunning range of homewares. One of their most famous product lines is the 'parfums d'idees' candle range, which features perfumes based on emotions and abstract ideas. These unique scents evoke sensations such as Strangeness, Obscurity, Morning, as well as others like A dream and Silence.

Maison Balzac is also known for its exquisite hand-blown colored glassware, which is characterized by its playful and unexpected designs. These pieces are perfect for adding a touch of joy and whimsy to any occasion, particularly for parties. Notably, their pink J'ai Soif carafe set gained widespread attention when it was featured as the best gift by The Financial Times' How to Spend It magazine in the UK.

Additionally, Maison Balzac has collaborated with other brands, including the Romance Was Born collection and the Doctor Cooper collection. These collaborations showcase the brand's versatility and ability to infuse its unique aesthetic into different creative partnerships.
