Galloping Giraffe is a childhood passion brought to reality by
Rosthema Kastin. Of European background and Parisian educated,
she accompanied her father on trips all over the world. The fond
memories of discovering just the right piece to add to her fathers
magnificent collection, ignited the passion that grew from those
journeys into her career as an interior designer and collector
of objects dart.
That very passion leads her today on many collecting hunts to
exotic and faraway places, some where few dare venture. She has
fascinating stories behind every object she offers in her constantly
changing collection. Just to hear the story behind the Central
Java wood carving "Cock Fighter and his Rooster" or that of the
Buddhas statue from far-off Myanmar is a treat.
Giraffes are renowned for their ability to pick only the finest
leaves from the top of the tree. Rostema earned the name "Galloping
Giraffe" because of her trained eye for picking the very finest
accessories from around the world. Each piece is a conversation
piece with a story just waiting to be shared. Many are unique,
all are distinctive objects that distinguish one interior from
another. Viewing these fine collectibles challenges the imagination.
Acquiring them is an investment guaranteed to enhance the surroundings.
Galloping Giraffe showroom will be delighted to send you a print
and a story of the piece you liked on this web site. Or, you might
prefer to describe the space for which you seek that one "very
special object".
Mind you, this is the tip of the iceberg of the extensive collection
that is constantly updated. Please bookmark this site for many
revisits!
