As proprietor of Houston-based Chateau Domingue, the leading source in the U.S. for monumental antiques and reclaimed materials, Ruth Gay has made dozens of buying pilgrimages to Europe, guided by an appreciation for materials that last and a taste for luxury that is warm, discreet and authentic.

Always ahead of the curve and responsive to her clients, she has recently expanded her offerings with new collections of wood and stone flooring and two new companies: Maison Domingue, a line of handsome bespoke doors made of reclaimed European oak and pine, and Atelier Domingue Architectural Metalcrafts, custom metal frame doors and windows that embody the slim profile, rigor and chic of European design.

With Domingue Architectural Finishes, Gay is both branching out and coming full circle. All-natural surfaces with substance and style are the perfect companions to both traditional settings and contemporary environments. Domingue Architectural Finishes is simply the latest expression of what has always driven Gay: a love in equal measure of quality and beauty.
