His reputation grew from 1985 thanks to his graphic, sculptured jewellery collections. He has gained international recognition through the striking designs of his furniture, mirrors and lighting. Hervé Van der Straeten is truly independent and his work combines a radical freedom of expression with meticulous execution. Hybridization, elegance and refinement are his watchwords. The Van der Straeten Gallery, which opened in the Marais neighbourhood of Paris in 1999, includes one of a kind or limited edition pieces grouped in thematic exhibitions. These pieces’ strong presence renders them instantly recognisable. They are made in the bronze and cabinet-making workshops set up and expanded by the designer over the years. He has also created items for leading luxury brands, many of which have become design icons such as Dior's "J’adore" perfume bottle
