We set ourselves a challenge and it was far from easy: restoring a sense of meaning by placing time at the heart of everything we do. The time spent on designing, formulating, and making. The time devoted to the respect of traditions transmitted from one generation to the next, of the talent that flourishes in the palm of each hand. The collections celebrate the know- how and high standards of craft professions, the quality of the bonds created with the artisans who brought my designs to life. This adventure would not have been possible without the women and men who fell in love with the fabulous story we shared with them.
Blown glass
"Glassblowing is my material of choice. I was lucky enough to discover this skill during a worskhop in Japan in 2008 with a glassblower from the traditional Japanese Furin. Then, when I moved to Italy, it was Massimo who passed on my passion for this elusive and magical material.
Today, I never tire of watching these great masters at work. Our collections showcase these skills. When design meets master craftsmanship."

Bronze art
The foundry that produces our bronze art pieces is a 3rd-generation family business, now run by two cousins. Originally a producer of cast-iron counterweights for cupola elevators, the workshop has expanded and diversified. Our castings are made in the same old induction furnace, using ancestral know-how.
Mirror-making
Quentin, our Marseille-based mirror-maker, has been part of the adventure since the very beginning. He is 30 years old and has taken over the reins of the family business, which has been in existence since 1948. He's an enthusiast ready to take on the wildest challenges. When we arrived with our mirror designs, he said without hesitation, "Yes, I'll make them for you. With a precise gesture, like a jeweler at his delicate work, he crafts our mirror collection with excellence.
The wood
Our furniture is made in France, in Anjou, a land of bocages and apple trees. Back in the day, the workshop made the barrels used to store cider. Over the generations, the family business has specialized in the manufacture of solid wood furniture and objects. Pierre and his brother Mathieu, now at the head of the company, work with a team of journeymen cabinet-makers with exceptional skills and respect for the environment.
Hand-tufted carpets
Our carpets are manufactured in our ancestral factory. What makes it special is the hand-tufted technique, increasingly rare these days, which guarantees impeccable quality and real durability over time. We share the same high standards with the craftsmen at the factory, to make this a timeless product that lasts and lasts. In this French factory, everything is produced on site in a short circuit.
Artisanal wax
Our candles are made by Sylvain, a master candle-maker on the Côte d'Azur since the age of 14. He is a true enthusiast. His factory, created 40 years ago by his father-in-law, is located in a place steeped in history, an old oil mill in the medieval village of Auribeau, dating back to the 13th century.
