Une artiste d'une sensibilité rare
Dotée d'un talent délicat et d'une sensibilité artistique hors du commun, elle traduit en aquarelle ce que les mots peinent à exprimer. Son pinceau effleure la soie avec douceur, convoquant des teintes nacrées, des silhouettes gracieuses et des instants suspendus dans le temps.
Avec poésie et justesse, elle capture l'émotion intemporelle du mariage de Grace Kelly et du Prince Rainier III, le 19 avril 1956 — l'une des unions les plus romanesques et les plus célèbres de l'histoire de la Principauté. Chaque pièce de la collection « Le Mariage » rayonne de la grâce et de l'élégance qui ont fait de ce jour une légende éternelle.
A note of history
On April 19, 1956, Monaco held its breath. In the Cathedral of Our Lady Immaculate, Prince Rainier III married Grace Kelly, the American actress turned Princess, before the eyes of the entire world. A union that transcended the simply princely marriage to become one of the most romantic stories of the twentieth century — that of a prince and a star, a Mediterranean rock and Hollywood, a love story that became legend.
On April 12, 1956, it was aboard the Deo Juvante, the princely yacht, that Rainier III himself took to the sea to welcome Grace Kelly off the coast of Monaco. The SS Constitution, bringing the actress back from America, was escorted by a festive flotilla before the eyes of thousands of jubilant Monégasques. This encounter on the open Mediterranean — the Prince and his future Princess, between sky and sea — would remain one of the most romantic images of this extraordinary wedding. Her wedding gown, a masterpiece of lace and taffeta created by Helen Rose for MGM, remains to this day one of the most admired in history. Her bouquet of lily of the valley, symbol of happiness and renewal, would forever scent the memory of that exceptional spring.
In 2026, for the 70th anniversary of this legendary union, Monoïkos 1297 pays tribute to this defining moment in Monégasque history. The "1956, Le Mariage" collection celebrates, through exceptional artisan pieces — silk squares, candles, porcelain — the grace, elegance and emotion of a day that now belongs to eternity.
A collection for all those who carry Monaco in their hearts.

The silk
The silk of this square has been carefully selected. This precious lustrous filament, obtained by unwinding the cocoon of a silkworm, naturally requires the highest quality production conditions. Highly sensitive to environmental quality, the silkworm cannot tolerate pollution and feeds exclusively on fresh leaves. Its cultivation demands exceptional expertise: our artisans have selected the finest sericulture farms.
Care for the beauty of your large silk square:
- Store it flat and untied.
- Avoid direct contact with perfume.
- Entrust cleaning to a specialist professional.
