Our Purpose

About us:

Bel Œil is a network of showrooms specialising in design, art, and decoration.

We have been established on the French Riviera for 30 years and now have four locations: Nice, Cannes, Monaco and Saint Tropez.

We are passionate about developing your decoration projects, whether for private, professional, or public spaces.

Our international design brands and our collections of objects, furniture, artwork, and decoration accessories are appreciated by our clients, who commend our creativity and reliability!

Our decoration approach is understated and timeless, but attentive to innovation: Bel Œil continuously monitors the new developments in design to best provide for its partners, whether hotels, architects, decorators or investors.

Bel Œil collects artwork through the privileged connections generated by our exhibition programmes and the particularly productive local art scene on the French Riviera.
We regularly deal with the leaders of the area’s art world: museums, galleries, and artists. We are a historical member of the Botox(s) network / partner of de l’air magazine, and we endeavour to contribute to the influence of these partners.
