Les Armes du Roi draws inspiration from the legendary Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres, established under the patronage of the French Crown and long associated with the opulence of the royal court. Fusing the delicate beauty of Sèvres porcelain with the brutal form of the grenade, the work explores the enduring relationship between power, wealth, and violence. Rich ornamental motifs evoke the grandeur of the French monarchy, while the weapon itself serves as a reminder that behind every empire lies the threat and legacy of destruction.
