Marie Bourgat grew up surrounded by art, travel, and multicultural influences, with roots in France and a life shaped by experiences across three continents. She spent formative years in South Africa and completed her International Baccalaureate in Milan before continuing her education in the United Kingdom, where she earned a degree in Textile Design. Over the years, she has lived and worked in France, Costa Rica, South Africa, Italy, the United Kingdom, and Mexico — always drawn to design, craftsmanship, and the stories behind beautiful objects.

With a background in trend forecasting, sales, and global client relations, Marie brings a sharp eye and a warm approach to her work. She has recently joined the Trove team as Sales Associate, supporting interior designers and collectors in discovering unique, handmade pieces from around the world.
