- Join us in Los Angeles for a behind the scenes visit with acclaimed designer Suzanne Rheinstein at her elegant Hancock Park home. In her classic 1914 house, you’ll see how she mixes family heirlooms, antiques and contemporary art for a fresh and personal take on timeless design. Just like her much missed L.A. shop, Hollyhock, her own home reflects a refined yet understated style echoing her New Orleans meets L.A. sensibility. Informed by a great knowledge of and respect for history and the decorative arts, Suzanne’s attention to subtle detail, proportion and texture lends her house a gracious ease, character and charm. Hear Suzanne’s tips for using what you love, entertaining in style and how to make your home reflect your own taste and personality. You’ll be inspired, informed and entertained!!

Revisiting my favorite video to pay tribute to this elegant woman. RIP Suzanne Rheinstein ❤
Thank you so much. Just heartbroken - she was truly a special person!
😢
Her dark blue silk outfit was EVERYTHING!!! And when she revealed the worn arm of her chair because she so loves the fabric..I just wanted to hug her...Thank you
We love Suzanne too!! And she has impeccable taste in everything!
I was absolutely mesmerized by her elegance and that of her home. And that mono-chromatic pant ensemble showcased it perfectly!!! It was EVERYTHING indeed! Very Halston!!
Outfit for a queen she is just wonderful 👏🏾
I just acquired an exquisite antique camelback loveseat....It has some slight wear on one arm, a small place. Now, I too will drape a lovely throw on the arm. Thank you for your transparency Mrs. Rheinstein.❤
Spend money on the Vases....then fill them with grocery store florals....fabulous!! I admire Mrs. Rheinstein's decision to buy an art piece with her income before she left a position. You can tell the Rheinsteins are thoughtful and careful money managers.
The most extraordinary coincidence... An hour ago I was standing in my cellar here in Paris staring at a tub of leftover paints I’ve saved over the years in case I needed to touch up a paint job, realizing that none of them would match any of my current interior, and wondering what would result if I simply mixed them all together. I came up, saw the notification for a new Quintessence video, and sat down to watch it. In it I had the answer to my question: DRAB! Extraordinary. I’m also working on the biography of a 18/19th century bird painter, so her bird paintings struck me as well. Would love to know who the artist is. Such synchronicity. Thank you, powers that be, and thank you, the well-named Quintessence.
Velvet & Toads Thank you so very much!! And love hearing stories like this - so happy to provide some inspiration and keep us posted on your biography!!
#Drabsynchronicity 😉👍🙏👌
Small world!
I came back to this video for inspiration and just noticed how gently Suzanne touches Susanna´s arm when looking for complicity on her anechdotes. What an adorable lady!
She is indeed - so perceptive of you!
@@quintessenceblg well... it took me some time, this video was uploaded some time ago hahaha. but thanks Stacey. Take care :)
That is a lovely home. I was thinking gracious, just as you said it. I like that Suzanne said her home is a scrapbook of her families' time together. That's a real home. Love it. Thank you for another wonderful episode!
Cindy M Our pleasure and agreed - a real home!! 🙏🏻
I think it's been my favourite out of the series so far and that realisation has taken me by surprise! I could live there easily!
Such a beautiful dream home. I like that she uses the dining room even for breakfast!
602redroses Yes! A well loved and used home!!
We use the dining room for breakfast. For most meals, it’s meant to be enjoyed. If you have guests you need the big table.
Suzanne Rheinstein is a living embodiment of American class.
Couldn't agree more!
What a lovely woman. Her home is spectacular. I love how many family mementos she used throughout her home. And they all work together!
Deette Kearns Suzanne’s home is truly personal and an expression of her interests and taste - the best kind!! Glad you enjoyed!
What an elegant lady. And an elegant home.
Yes to both!!
I second that !
Agree!
@@hansmir5443 Yep!!!!!!!!!
I adore that she refused to replace the exquisite, but worn, crewel fabric and merely tossed a throw over it. Another beautiful video!
Lglchick 1970 Right?! Me too! Thank you - so glad you enjoyed!
Of course she was raised in New Orleans with a piano in the foyer. How stunning is this house! I absolutely love everything about it! Formal without the pretense. Glorious!
jcrane45585 Couldn’t agree more - so glad you enjoyed!!
Don't you just Love that things in this home were passed down from families "who never threw anything away!! Susanna said it perfectly...it is a "gracious home"!!
It is indeed and it was such a great loss losing Suzanne!
Wow I love her house and everything from the furniture, the Chinese panels, her textiles, chandeliers, flower arrangements, table ware collection wow etc..
She is amazing love her
Thank you Suzanne and Stacey for this inspiring video love xx
You are most welcome Rowaida! I thought you would appreciate this episode!!
I've followed S.R. for decades. I love her style and enjoy seeing how her home has changed over the years.
We do too! She is so talented!
Awesome. I love her home. BEAUTIFULLY decorated by a down to earth designer and gracious host.
Angie Johnson We love it too and agree on all!!
Your videos are like no others! Please keep them coming! Love, Love , Love!
Sandy Lunden Thanks so much Sandy!! Will do! #staytuned
What a lovely lady. So talented. She will be missed
Yes to all.
Blown away and touched by her inspiration. Suzanne must be a wonderful playmate. She has a beautiful soul.
Theresa Kraft Suzanne is lovely inside and out!
I love this home. I love how Suzanne has blended her gorgeous pieces into everyday living. Every room invites you to sit down and be comfortable. As a fellow tabletop collector I am loving the pantry. Thank you for sharing your home.
Randy Lehman Couldn’t agree more Randy!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
This home has such an ease and beautiful elegance that is timeless and you just don’t see that in modern design today.
Elizabeth Law Yes, a truly timeless and elegant home, yet still fresh and lived in! So glad you enjoyed
An absolute feast for the eyes! Some exquisite things in this beautiful house. And what a knowledgeable lady host! She knows her onions!
Julian Coulden Yes she does!! As well as talented and a gracious host! Glad you enjoyed!
Some homes are just gorgeous but you don't feel you can touch anything, this home was beyond gorgeous and yet I felt that I could walk around and be very comfortable and as you said, not stuffy. It was a feast for the eyes inside and out! I would have been in repose heaven in her backyard!
tigermoon44 so true every word!!
tigermoon44 Exactly right! Comfort and elegance! A true home!
I love that she has kept her home the same for awhile, instead of constantly updating. She obviously loves it, and that is refreshing.
Beautiful! Love the "longer" episodes!
Erik with a K delighted to hear - thank you!!
This is what a boss lady is! I love how confident and stylish she is with a big sense of humour. Thanks Susanna and Stacey for putting me on to these amazing designers 💕
Our pleasure! We adore Suzanne and knew our viewers would too!
Love the garden
What a beauty!!!
This wonderful lady and her charming house were an inspiration to me.
goodboybuddy1 happy to hear it! To us too!
Bonjour Suzanna and Stacy from my cold, very cold -14C Québec city. What a lovely moment with this lady and her beautiful home, so cozy, relax and nothing is "snob" or exaggerate, it is simply chic but the feel if very a home where one live and entertain. Again, what a lovely lady and a great moment in this beautiful home. Thanks for sharing, a very Happy Thanksgiving to you, my dear friends, à bientôt, Joyeux Action de grâce (( hugs ))
Rosalind Hambleton Bonjour Rosalind and merci!! So glad you loved visiting Suzanne’s beautiful home as much as we did!!
Rosalind Hambleton Mille mercis!! 🙏🙏😉
Oh I love her ! She is adorable !
She is and very talented!
The Chinese wall paper panels is what drew me in to watch this video. They are stunning.
They are indeed! Glad you enjoyed!
Lovely lady and lovely home! She has a keen eye for color and a wonderful sense of style. The blue silk blouse she wore is stunning!
strongforu Indeed! Suzanne has good taste in everything!!
Thank you to quintessence team and to all these warm hearted people who open their elegant homes. It is coronavirus season . Staying home. love your programs
Thank you so much!! So happy we can provide some inspiration and entertainment in these challenging times!
💕💕💕 I love looking at interiors, can do it all day long, but I've realized that the best ones are those that the homeowner has amazing stories to go with each piece that was added to the home. 💕💕💕
Ruth Hovsepian Exactly and why we started this series - our motto is giving design a voice!!
SOO true!!!
I agree but that's made me realize that nothing in my home really has a story.
She reminds me of my southern grandmother-the epitome of gracious and welcoming.
Since I am also a native New Orleanian, I recognize so much of her style as the look of home. Lovely. It could be a home in the Garden District or Old Metairie.
Monique Lehnhardt 👍🏻
The black and white vases with the orange flowers are gorgeous!
cynthia Smith Right?! We loved that too!
Wouldn't know, never visited a whorehouse but I can see that you might need to.
Get a life... It is flowers for gods sake.
@Ber P. f off
I love how she hung contemporary art in rooms that are filled with period pieces.
I adore that collage in the living room! Her special peices are all gorgeous.
I love the throw over the frayed fabric (09:19). That's a clever hack, lol.
dhgemein2 Isn’t it?! Glad you enjoyed!
That's nothing new. I've been doing that to my 20-year old sofa - I've had to put a throw over each arm though - all frayed and holey from constant use.
I want to cry.... that’s all what I love :-(
What a truly lovely home. She seems like she would be interesting to know. I love her use of flowers and fabric. I also love that she wasn't at all uncomfortable to show the worn place on her chair!!
Patsy Hooker Both Suzanne and her home are gracious, interesting and beautiful! So glad you enjoyed!
She is adorable and fascinating and lives just blocks from me
Leslie Whitlock I hope you get to visit!!
Gracious and elegant home. I had the pleasure of visiting Hollyhock...such a charming shop. Thank you for this visit!
Diogenes 704 Our pleasure and yes, Hollyhock is much missed!!
One of the most exquisite homes in my very favorite neighborhood in LA. Thanks for this.
Michael Mercurio agreed and our pleasure!!
Beautiful home . Beautiful lady💚
She is Fabulous !!! What a gorgeous home I absolutely love her! I get so excited when I see a new video of yours waiting for me you have no idea! Thank you for doing these they are a true treat!
Isn't she?! We just adore Suzanne! And thank you - delighted to hear you are a fan of our series! Stay tuned - lots coming!
Our true pleasure!
The Chinese panels are beautiful, I am still looking for the right antique wallpaper to frame.
nadia liekens Aren’t they?! Just exquisite!
Is that something you would do yourself or would you have it sent out?
@@EvergreenVB That depends on what I can find or what somebody offers readymade for sale.
Yes!! I looooove those Chinese wall panels.
I'm looking at them and thinking I'd attempt a copy!
Thank you for introducing me to Suzanne , I fell in love on the first video . And I'm so glad to see the L.A. I remember alive & kicking.
Judy Pratt Our pleasure Judy! Suzanne is a delight - gracious and talented!
Oh my do I love this home! She’s a grand beautiful lady with excellent taste, I’d love to know her, I’m going on to much but it was such a treat. Susanna you bring joy, so love you!❤️
Kit Kat1 Thank you so much!! - Stacey (behind the camera)
Kit Kat1 thrilled you love Suzanne as much as we do!
So elegant home!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Absolutley GORGEOUS... What a lovely treat!!!
Wonderful! Things of beauty and excellence that are used and enjoyed and appreciated by generations of the same family.
Andrew Brendan Exactly!!! A wonderful lesson and example!
This woman.....can serve the whole neighborhood🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄😃😃😃😃😃😃🌍
Loved it so much I watched it twice! Elegant, formal but classic and comfortable home. So rare now and I hope who buys this house in the future does not gut it.
Vintage Kitty Agree on all - so glad you enjoyed enough for a repeat viewing!
Elegance. Love her Chickering grand in the entry!
👍🏻👍🏻
Such a lovely ambiance, such a warm, and classy lady. Thank you for all these wonderful visits
Dolores Pap Our pleasure and so glad you enjoyed visiting Suzanne! 🙏🏻
A grand reminder of a gracious soul. Rest in peace my dear lady.
I watched it again last night such a beautiful video to see before bed. I love the patina antiques character. I remember following her publications in Southern Accents and Veranda. She’s like Bunny Williams definitely one of a kind and Such an inspiration.
Oh and that blouse !!
Ugh I'm supposed to be in my bed but I can't stop binge watching these fabulous rooms
LOL - glad you enjoy!!
Hallelujah!!! Beautiful home!!! Thank you so much for the new video and sharing!!!
Our pleasure!! Glad you liked!!
i love her trick of using a throw to cover up the wear and tear, it's so practical , i hate it when everything is perfect. my gran taught me that, they didn't have a lot of money but her house was so sweet and decorated the way she wanted it. my house is decorated with many things from the sally ann and i love it
I no longer feel guilty about having too much dinnerware. My collection does not even compare! Love your videos, Susanna!
Christine Duffy LOL - Glad to assuage your guilt 😉 So glad you enjoy the series.
Thank you!!
I agree: Thank you for another wonderful episode! From Brazil!
Edwin Fickel Thank you!! We love our Brazilian viewers!
What a lovely home! A wonderful combination of design and a true family home.
Totally agree - glad you enjoyed!
Love the un-California feel of this LA home. Gorgeous
We love it too!
Her La Cienega shop was divine! Such a loss when she closed after thirty years. Impeccable taste 😌
I totally agree! And stay tuned for the video of her Montecito retreat later this year!
So much inspiration! Her home is so elegant yet her style feels accessible and achievable.
I totally agree!
I never knew her personally, but she inspired me to save up to study interior design one day and to start my open business. This is so sad. Rest well Suzzane. You were such a gem.
With love, from Kenya 💕
That is a nice story. Do you have your own business now or you still saving?
Hello, thank you. I don't have my business yet. I'm still saving. But I hope that one day, I'll be able to realize it.
@@cherylsavedbygrace Best wishes.
@JB-pd3ir Thank you very much.
I loved her worn arm of the chair , her honest because sometimes we all have something so favourite that we don’t want to let it go.
Her dish closet is worth more than my entire home, land, and contents included.
'Drab' of a dull light brown color. (word origins are fun) Love your enthusiasm and inquisitiveness.
Linda Peterson 🙏🏻👍🏻
🙏💃😉
Beautiful & Elegant home. Class. 👍👍
William Kimmer indeed!! 👍🏻🙏🏻

THE OPULENCE of the home is BREATHTAKING . The elegance of the rooms make you DREAM.

Beautiful home. I love those Chinese screens! Reminds me of some of the 18th century wall papers I've seen in stately homes in England.
Exactly! They are stunning! Glad you enjoyed!
Another amazing video! Thank you!!
Thank YOU - so glad you enjoyed!
Wonderful!
Such beautiful differences in between this and her current place.
She has both actually - and yes, very different!
Hancock Park is such a pretty part of the city. I take an evening stroll there just about every night to look at the architecture in the light.
Lucky you!! A lovely neighborhood!
Beautiful! I love these videos
joliz1234 Thank you! So glad you enjoy the series!

Omg! Such an elegant space.
I checked this out because of those insanely gorgeous screens! Oooo la la!!
Also, the way the fabric is tied to the furniture~I am in love.
So glad you loved!
What a light colors on the crewel fabric. I love it
