Claudia Schiffer’s Cotswolds Home Is Filled With Ceramics, Chocolate, and Lots of Chanel
Chanel Archive Bags from Karl Lagerfeld
Claudia Schiffer shares her collection of Chanel archive bags, many of which were given to her by Karl Lagerfeld himself. These bags hold a deep meaning for her as Lagerfeld played a significant role in her transformation from a shy girl to a supermodel.
Art Collection and Sourcing
As an avid art collector, Schiffer prefers to personally source her pieces rather than using an advisor. She describes how she feels an immediate connection to a piece of art when she sees it, especially recalling a painting by Ed Ruscha that holds sentimental value to her.
The Heart of the Home: The Kitchen
Schiffer considers the kitchen the most important room in her house where her family gathers. Though not a cook herself, she appreciates tableware and decor, showcasing a beautiful butterfly vase by Bordallo Pinheiro and a secret stash of Cadbury chocolates.
Turtle Ceramics Collection
In her dining room, Schiffer displays a collection of tiny turtle ceramics, symbolizing her affection for tortoises. She shares how she always looks for unique turtle items to bring home from her travels around the world.
