Emotions in miniature
I am Natalia Lucchezi - a decorator by profession and an artist by vocation. As a child I dreamed of becoming a painter and spent many hours drawing, but I never had the chance to study at an art school. Life led me instead to interior design and later to the world of table decoration and Art de la Table. In that work I found and still find everything I love: object culture, history, tradition, the play of color and texture, and countless ways to express myself through form and style.
In early 2025, faced with a serious diagnosis and an upcoming brain surgery, I returned to painting as a form of art therapy. Drawing helped me move through fear and pain, and during recovery I found a second wind: colors, brushstrokes and small stories became my guide. Only a year later, in spring 2026, I began to search seriously for my own style and miniatures became my primary medium.

"Krasavitsa"
While working on the creative project "Art de la Table à la russe" in Paris in March 2026, I reflected a great deal on the forms and motifs of table setting, testing ideas in miniature as in a laboratory.
Thus, the Dulevo series was born - my homage to the legendary Russian porcelain. On the iconic “Krasavitsa” (Beauty) pattern I captured various spring flowers, and later chose violets, in tribute to my mother’s home garden, for the final table presentation.

"Royal Copenhagen"
The Royal Copenhagen series expresses my long‑standing love for the classic blue‑and‑white palette of tableware and décor. It honors tradition, as the service depicted on these miniatures is vintage.
The main star of this series is my garden camellia in the shade “Morning Blush,” which I decided to portray in a sauceboat. The fragility of this flower inspired me: to notice, to savor, to place it in an unexpected context and to capture the beauty of the moment - this is the creative process that guided me in making this miniature.

"Bouquet from Nîmes"
Finally, “Bouquet from Nîmes” is a single, vibrant work born after a trip to the south of France: a colorful bouquet in a strawberry‑shaped vase - an almost summer burst of scent and color, the final chord of this spring.
Each miniature is a captured emotion. With them you can do more than decorate a room: you can create a mini oasis of beauty and calm, filled with the scent of Maison Lucchezi’s spring garden.
