From there, the Brand has been built as a reflection of individuality: modern bags and shoes with an aesthetic that is as timeless as it is relevant, where sustainable longevity, craft, and exceptional materials are essential. Mansur Gavriel celebrates the beauty in everyday through color, material and beautiful craft.

Jonathan’s mission: to bring Modern American Glamour to your life. How? By creating a foundation of timelessly chic furniture and accessorizing with abandon. It all started with pottery. Jonathan first gave the wheel a spin at summer camp when he was 12 years old. He was obsessed with clay the moment he touched it. Unfortunately, his passion wasn’t always encouraged. After his college professor told him, “You have no talent. Move to New York and become a lawyer,” he attempted to comply, moving to the city and working in the entertainment biz. Three years later he quit and went back to the wheel. In 1993, Barneys bought his collection of pots, and in 1998, he opened his first store. Today his offerings span furniture, lighting, décor, and more, iconic interior design projects, and retail locations worldwide, all rooted in his commitment to outstanding design, impeccable materials, and unparalleled craftsmanship.

At Naturopathica, our roots are as authentic as our ingredients. We were founded in 1995 by Barbara Close, a trained esthetician, massage therapist, aromatherapist and herbalist with a master’s degree in plant medicine. Barbara had long known the healing power of nature, and after searching for “clean” skincare products before they even existed, she resolved to create them herself in a modern herbal apothecary. As Naturopathica went from a small healing arts studio to a leader in botanical healing, it pioneered “clean beauty” practices that were common sense to Barbara: a holistic approach to skin health, where skin is a reflection of all that happens inside the body. Using her expertise as an herbalist and esthetician, Barbara crafted high-performance products made with a hybrid of natural ingredients and clean cosmeceuticals. Instead of fighting against nature, Barbara designed products to work with the skin to deliver visible, lasting results. Naturopathica distributes directly to consumers via two flagship spa locations, our site Naturopathica.com, as well as retail and spa partners.
