The Art of Galuchat

For centuries, Galuchat, also known as Shagreen, has fascinated

collectors, artisans and designers alike.

Recognizable by its singular texture and subtle luminosity, this rare material carries within it a quiet form of luxury: discreet, tactile and timeless.

Originally prized in Asia before captivating the decorative arts of 18th-century Europe, Galuchat has long been associated with refinement and exceptional craftsmanship. Its naturally beaded surface, both delicate and resistant, transforms each creation into a unique object shaped by light and touch.

At Sea Memory, galuchat became more than a material. It became a signature.

Since the early years of the house in Saint Barth, rare materials have guided our vision materials chosen not only for their beauty, but for the emotions they evoke. Under the impulse of Edouard Lacour, Galuchat gradually found its place at the heart of the collections, bringing together heritage craftsmanship and contemporary elegance.

Each piece reveals subtle variations in texture, depth and reflection, making every object inherently singular. From decorative objects to bespoke creations, galuchat embodies a form of quiet sophistication inspired by island living and timeless design.

In a world driven by excess, Galuchat speaks another language: one of patience, rarity and enduring beauty. At Sea Memory, it continues to shape objects designed to be collected, lived with and passed on through time.
