About The Salon

The Salon grows from a simple belief that beauty deserves our attention, and knowledge deserves to be shared.

Going beyond the idea of traditional fair, we bring passionate artisans, collectors and curious minds together to experience beauty, history through art and appreciate the care and craftsmanship behind exceptional objects. 

Inspired by the salons of the nineteenth century, we nurture a community where genuine friendships grow through shared discovery and knowledge passes from one generation to the next.

The Winter Salon 2026
By Diplomat Magazine

THE HAGUE — The Salon returns to Hotel Des Indes from 3 to 6 December 2026 for its third edition. Around 40 carefully selected exhibitors from the Netherlands and abroad will present jewellery, art, vintage pieces, decorative objects and fine furniture. A programme of talks, together with opportunities for emerging makers, will invite visitors to look beyond the objects themselves and discover the craftsmanship, histories and ideas behind them.

A Considered Selection

Exhibitors from the Netherlands, Italy, France, Spain and Belgium will be among those participating in The Winter Salon. Participation is by invitation, with selection based on authenticity, cultural significance, originality and craftsmanship.

Historical and contemporary pieces will be presented alongside one another, bringing different disciplines and generations into conversation. For Simak, these encounters are central to The Salon: they allow visitors to look beyond an object’s appearance and learn from those who have made, studied or collected it.
