Line Vautrin is one of those archetypally French personalities - others are Cocteau, Piaf and Christian Berard - whose talents are compounded of dreams, poetry, images from the past and a mischievous sense of fun. Since she was five years old, she has, like an alchemist turning base metals into gold, transformed humble materials into miracles of beauty and imagination. Even the war-time scarcity of metals did not stop her; they made invention all the more important. Her career took off from a shop in the Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honore and a Louis XV hotel in the Marais, housing her workshops, showroom and apartment, which became a veritable Aladdin's cave.
Like Schiaparelli, Vautrin pioneered designer buttons; but hers were part of a range of jewelry that is utterly unlike anyone else's: made in a variety of substances from gilt bronze to resin, and in forms inspired by ancient Greek coins, medieval folk art, animals, word-games, or, in her extraordinary abstract ensembles, the material itself. From jewelry, her love of handiwork and inventing shapes led her on to sculpture, and finally to an altogether new art-form which she calls "pellimorphoses."
But Line Vautrin is much more than the sum of her inventions: she is a part of history, and her work is sought by museums. This tribute is the first to fix the shifting colors of her life in permanent form. Vautrin herself has contributed a witty autobiographical sketch, and supervised the layout of her pieces in the color plates, while Patrick Mauries supplies a knowledgeable assessment of her work.
An incarnation of the ideal Parisienne, Line Vautrin has been fashioning whimsical, charming objects for decades. Now a new audience has the chance to enter her enchanted world.

Lovely dense and soft.
Color: Multi Color
Perfect toothbrush. I’ve always loved a super stiff toothbrush, it just felt right, like scrubbing the grime off. BUT, I ended up scrubbing my gums into recession. So I’ve had to buy soft toothbrushes. For years I’ve hated them. Waterpik, floss then brush and the brushing felt always felt like I wasn’t doing anything. I disliked everything about the bristles. These were bought on a whim, they’re pretty and have four which is how many I needed to replace everyone’s toothbrushes. I LOVE these. They’re definitely soft, in a way I haven’t felt before and can’t really articulate, but they’re also dense. There are a lot of bristles. The bristles feel like I’m getting my teeth very clean, like they’re getting into all the little areas they need to. The only issue I have is they squeak a little and that can be annoying.

My New Go-To for Gentle Everyday Care!
Color: White
I’ve been loving my Boka Classic Manual Toothbrush, it’s truly transformed my brushing routine! 🪥 The extra-soft, activated-charcoal-infused bristles feel so gentle yet effective, especially along the gumline. They clean thoroughly without scratching or irritating sensitive gums, which has made a noticeable difference in comfort and overall oral health.

Get Yourself A Bright White Smile
Can't belive how great this works. You can actually see the staining it removes when you expel to rinse. A bit messy to use all be it being a powder. The taste isn't bad. I believe this works better than the whitening stripe, which to me are difficult to use. Gentle on your gums and teeth. I do not recommend and do not believe the manufacture does either to use on a daily basis. A bit pricey but so are the whitening strips. For a bright white smile I recommend this product.

Easy to Use and No Bad Taste
I really like this whitening powder, it’s easy to use and fits nicely into my routine. It works well as an alternative to regular toothpaste, and the process feels simple and quick. One of the best things is that there’s no bad taste. It has a mild, clean flavor that makes it comfortable to use daily, even if you’re sensitive to strong or overpowering mint products. After using it consistently, it seems to be working my teeth look a bit brighter, and it feels gentle enough for sensitive teeth without causing discomfort. Minor note: Since it’s a powder, it can feel a little different at first compared to traditional toothpaste, but it’s easy to get used to. Overall, this is a convenient and gentle whitening option that’s easy to stick with. A great choice if you want something effective without harsh taste or sensitivity.
