Winter 2024/25

“There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.”

-Edith Wharton


Dear Friends,

In the story of Indra’s Net, a web of interconnected jewels forms the underlying structure of the universe, each jewel reflecting the light of the other. I’ve seen this take shape recently, as fellow humans—friends and strangers alike—seem to turn more deeply to each other in kindness. In response to this challenging time, we are reflecting each others’ light. 

We dedicate our Winter 2024/25 issue, The Luminous Season, to that spirit. It is our December tradition at Henry to curate a selection of our favorite stories of the year, as well as look ahead to the coming season. In this issue we share exciting new product launches in our 2025 Collections Preview, pieces on San Francisco designers and art advisors AubreyMaxwell and painter Clare Rojas, and an insightful look at a masterful restoration at the Louvre. And speaking of Paris, we offer a guide to events at one of the season’s highlights, Déco Off, an essential destination for the San Francisco design community each January. 

As always, we want to express our gratitude to our incredible creative team, and for the support and generosity of the San Francisco design community. It’s good to know we can always turn to each other, and bask in that light. 

With all warmest wishes, 
Alisa
