When we think of our ancestors, our thoughts intertwine with the memories they have left behind, the enduring legacies of values, customs and traditions they’ve entrusted us with – and indeed, this is the most precious inheritance one can give.
Last week, Stylisphere went to Korçë, and what was expected to be a simple stay in a boutique hotel, transformed into a captivation in history.
Built in the ‘30s as an investment of Rrako Qirjako, a visionary merchant with a love for beauty, the famous villa stands still in its glory as Tresor Art Boutique.
Turned into a 9 rooms boutique, its art and history can be felt and experienced by the 20th century ornaments, the restored paintings and frescos of Sotir Zografi and the original Indonesian wood and Belgian iron that Rrako imported during that era, ensuring only the finest materials graced its halls.

As we wander through its corridors or gaze upon the so-called “the 12 neighborhoods” from its windows, we can distinguish the fine taste that aristocrasy had in Korçë; and it’s as though their presence lingers on. We depart, pondering if they continue to teach us – a lesson in elegance that we, at times, overlook.
