S ay hello to the "R" months by celebrating all things oyster. With our favorite bivalves at peak plumpness, indulgence in this beloved culinary treat is truly part of our salty culture. Oysters on the half shell, just opened or chargrilled on an open flame, are in abundance during the cooler season and "I'll have a dozen" is heard all over town! Our love for this earthy yet elegant mollusk is deep and abiding. The shells with their simple, organic shapes and stunning interior colors – purple, silver, cream – are naturals for all sorts of decoration. Like New Orleans, oysters are tenacious and beautiful – utterly deserving of our devotion.

By katy danos | photos by chris granger Rach and Bach Michael Harold & Quinn Peeper

N ew Orleanian Quinn Peeper, a renowned and scholarly obstetrician-gynecologist, is the national president of the English-Speaking Union, a non- profit organization that is near and dear to his heart. The ESU, founded in 1918 and headquartered in New York City, uses the English language to foster global peace and the exchange of ideas through educational opportunities and cultural programs. With the group approaching its 100th anniversary under his leadership, Quinn wanted to mark the deserving occasion in a memorable way. First steps were to compel the ESU to hold its convention here in New Orleans and to reserve the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra for the appropriate dates. With those initial decisions in place, Quinn would have two years to see his vision come to fruition. And that's where his husband Michael Harold, an attorney, comes in to play. Literally. Armed with their mutual love for entertaining and experience in fundraising for the arts, the couple founded "Rach and Bach" – a wildly creative benefit gala developed around the work of composers Sergei Rachmaninoff and Johann Sebastian Bach. As classically trained pianists

and seasoned performers, the plan was for Quinn (Rach) and Michael (Bach) to play selected masterpieces with all proceeds going to the ESU. It would be their debut on the Orpheum stage and with the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra, no less. Ambitious, right? Well, in looking at their witty Rach and Bach website, it is abundantly clear that this couple is loaded with passion for European history, a potent sense of humor, and the musical chops required to pull this off without a hitch. Their benefit concert surpassed goals and the farewell brunch they hosted at their Uptown home at the end of the three-day conference was a spectacular send off for local and out of town guests. The entire project – New Orleans meets England meets Rach and Bach – was indeed a labor of love.

For planning the brunch, and, let's be honest, for two people who love research, clever details, and all the decorative arts, a great theme with a party to plan is a match made in heaven. They pored over copious reading materials about the personalities of the famed composers and brainstormed ideas for entertaining the ESU sponsors and patrons in keeping with the theme. For invitations, they turned to noted local stationary designers. The letterpress invitation that features a charming sketch of Shakespeare and an envelope lined with witty words from his play "As You Like It" is from Scriptura. The engraved card with a custom monogram, sized smaller so that out of town guests would

be able to tuck the information into a pocket or purse, was created by Alexa Pulitzer. The envelope has a Byzantine outline referencing Rachmaninoff's Russia in a subtle and sophisticated way. The vecherinka, as Rach would say, or soiree, as we would, was held at eight a.m. on a sparkling November morning last Fall. Many of the guests were visiting from cold weather climes, so being outdoors "Big Easy" style was quite a treat. Michael and Quinn's home, which was built in 1862, has main entrances on the sides rather than the front of the house. It's a renovated duplex that the couple converted to

a single residence and, as Quinn likes to quip, "It's bellum. Not antebellum, not post, just plain old bellum." What this not-so-plain house has is a lush backyard garden and two fabulous side yards – one with a great side porch and bricked patio perfect for entertaining. A pair of Japanese Blueberry trees flank a fountain and outdoor mirror that reflects Savannah Holly trees and lush Kimberly Queen ferns from the porch. A bananas foster station was presented as something quintessentially New Orleans. The classic dessert, featuring brown sugar, rum, and creme de banana, was made-to-order and served with vanilla bean ice cream. Decorations included a New Orleans Toile tablecloth and an 18th century Russian samovar that Quinn found in a Paris flea market. In the back garden, The Last Straws played traditional jazz and omelets were made-to-order with crabmeat or shrimp. And, just to be sure guests knew they were in old school New Orleans, spinach madeleine was on hand. Both good old German Bach and Russian Rach were well-represented with their favorite foods and drink. Some of the offerings were sausages with cabbage pancakes, applesauce and sour cream, and blinis with caviar and creme fraiche, all washed down with shots of chilled Russian vodka.

I started collecting antiques when I moved here twenty- five years ago. With my heavy student loans, I couldn't even open an account at Sears. But the proprietors at Royal Antiques encouraged me to acquire nice things slowly and to pay over time. I'd pass this same kind advice on to anyone just starting out. - quinn peeper

As consummate collectors of all things china, silver, and antique, Quinn and Michael have tableware, objects d'art, and fine furnishings gathered over a lifetime of travel, antique hunting, and caring for inherited sentimental treasures. Like all avid collectors, the thrill is in the hunt and using your favorite things often and in unexpected ways. A bust of Bach – a Christmas gift for Quinn at age eight – Michael's grandmother's sterling flatware, malachite Russian worry beads which were a gift from their decorating muse Rosemary James, and antlers from Quinn's grandfather's office in rural Arkansas are tucked here and there in thoughtfully composed tablescapes loaded with personal style. Standout pieces include a William Yeoward caviar server signed by the designer when he was at the couple's home for dinner, a 19th century Baccarat crystal surtout de table from Lucullus used as the dining table centerpiece, and a three-tiered porcelain desserterie from the New Orleans Auction filled with Quinn's favorite sweet, Turkish Delight, from London's Fortnum and Mason. For the event, Quinn took to eBay to unearth a Russian, painted tole tray for the Russian vodka chiller

and to score several stunning Pavlovo Posad fringed shawls he used as table toppers. And a quick trip to the farmer's market for satsumas and autumnal root vegetables added organic bursts of color to the outdoor setting connecting it beautifully to the cantaloupe formal dining room. In a home appointed with fine paintings, furniture, and accessories, the easy and charming touches are what deliver authentic style. A small figurine of the Crown Mother, a favorite wedding gift, sums it up best. Share the things that you enjoy most and, like this special weekend in New Orleans, it all comes together perfectly.

I love to spend hours hunting on eBay and researching great finds. What else is there to do overnight

while waiting to deliver a baby? - quinn peeper

JEWISH ROOTS OF

FASHION

By R. stephanie bruno

T he Jewish community has always been a philanthropic and civic force in New Orleans, but, when it comes to business, they are quite literally the fabric of the city. They are the entrepreneurs and visionaries who invested in the fashion palaces and neighborhood shops that continue to ensure New Orleanians always look their most stylish. The earliest was Godchaux's – founded in 1840 by Leon Godchaux from Alsace-Lorraine – where the hat department was nonpareil. Kreeger's opened in 1865 and was known for its superior furs and fur storage policies. By 1900, Gus Mayer had opened; mid-century, it was known for its expert staff who were as adept at fitting bras as at fitting shoes. And Hausmann's (started by the widow Theresa Hausmann and her sons in 1924) was the Canal Street jewelry store where the finest silver and crystal were displayed with the same care one might employ to display a Fabergé egg. Then there was the magnificent Maison Blanche, established by Isidore Newman in 1897. It was New Orleans' Bloomingdales and aptly called a "palace" in the press. And who could argue? It was a place where it was easy to feel like a queen. The Krauss brothers (Fritz, Leopold, Max, and Sigmund) gave the city the first air-conditioned department store, and the first up and down escalators (acquired after the 1939 World's Fair closed). The immense department store they founded was the place to buy fabric and specialty

foundations. Women of a certain size still rue the day the store closed and their super-sized brassieres were gone, just like that. About the same time that Maison Blanche opened, Joseph Haspel Sr. was casting about for ideas for keeping New Orleans men cool – but stylish – in the blistering summer heat. His answer? Seersucker, the fabric imported from India by the British. Today, Haspel makes seersucker suits in seven shades that rival the rainbow hues of snowball syrup bottles lined up on a shelf at Plum Street or Hansen's.

Adler's remains the place for fine jewelry on Canal Street. The shop opened in 1898 on Royal Street in the French Quarter but moved to Canal as business boomed. The founder's grandson, Coleman Adler II, keeps it a family business even today. The same holds true for Lee Michaels Fine Jewelry, founded by Chad Berg's father in 1978 in Baton Rouge. Could the Bergs have foreseen that their family business would morph into a jewelry empire that stretches from New Mexico to Mississippi?

Rubenstein's (Rubenstein Bros.) got its start when Morris Rubenstein established a haberdashery in 1924 and welcomed his brothers as partners a few years later. The business now occupies six historic buildings on Canal Street and remains a family run enterprise. Far upriver from Rubenstein's, Perlis on Magazine Street has been outfitting Uptowners for everything from tailgating parties to Carnival balls since 1939, when Rogers Perlis opened up shop in the 6000 block. In 1972, Perlis' son, David George Perlis, secured the business a place in the city's fashion hall of fame by inventing the red crawfish logo to adorn his goods. From the early days of the 19th century to today, Jewish retailers have served the community as leaders in fashion and style. Here's to the many families among us who carry on this rich tradition.
