Ever the prolific artist and designer, Jane Seymour
was not content to stick with just acting, painting
and motherhood. In 2003, in conjunction with the
Saks Department Store Group, Seymour launched an
exclusive home collection inspired by her two homes.
According to Seymour, the collections are "a perfect
blend of timelessness and beauty." Each collection
includes bedding and accessories such as table lamps,
candlesticks and picture frames, all in coordinating
colors. The first collection, St. Catherine's Court,
reflects the dramatic elegance of her 14th-century
manor house in Bath, England. The second collection,
Coral Canyon Home, is reminiscent of her Malibu
estate. The newest series, unveiled in November
2004, is the Jane Seymour Grand Hotel Mackinac Island
Collection. When Seymour played opposite Christopher
Reeve (with whom she became good friends and named
a son

after,
and whose recent death has deeply affected the actress)
in Somewhere in Time, she became enchanted
with the island on Lake Michigan that served as the
setting for the film. "My new Grand Hotel-Mackinac
Island Home Collection is truly a step back in time,"
says Seymour. "I wanted to return to the era of romantic,
turn-of-the-century elegance that I treasure ... and
give it a contemporary
|
refinement that will suit any home."
Today,
the Jane Seymour Home Collection includes beds and
bedroom furniture and is available exclusively in
more than 200 participating Saks Department Store
Group stores, including Saks Fifth Avenue, Parisian,
McRae's, Berger's and Boston Store.--R.N. Jane Seymour
