The Nouveau Heron design is inspired by the heron that circles the moat at Chateau de la Motte Husson, brought to life in an Art Deco style.
In Japanese culture, the heron represents a noble and graceful appearance, a sign of purity and happiness. Surrounded by a picturesque moat, the Chateau is the perfect backdrop for this elegant and symbolic bird. The Nouveau Heron design beautifully encapsulates these qualities.
“We are very fortunate to be surrounded by a moat. Not only is it peaceful, but a heron perches on a rock every morning to catch fish. Dorothy has taken a real liking to our adopted heron, often shouting at the top of her lungs, 'The heron...the heron!’ It usually flies away at this point, but we all run to the window to see it in flight!”
