Three generations since the nineteenth century have perpetuated with talent the tradition of porcelain Limoges.
Martial first, who in 1919 acquired the factory Montjovis and who has stated his ambitions through multiple collections with classic forms and decors strongly inspired by Art Nouveau and Art Deco. He also owes the admirable tsarine cups whose motifs come from the palaces of St. Petersburg, but especially the amazing "pearls and enamels" borrowed from the Hungarian tradition.
André then, who succeeds his father in 1952 and who will enrich the company of the many facets of his personality. Heir to a century-old know-how, his industrial innovations will enable him to create modern and bold collections with square shapes that are still exhibited today in museums such as the Georges Pompidou Center.
He will also re-edit so-called "Compagnie des Indes" sets on celadon or ivory pasta and publish famous painters or designers such as Dali, Cocteau, Arman or Raymond Loewy ...
In 1992, Bertrand, with the support of Ercuis, a great French goldsmith, took over the management of the company. His creative vision is focused on new lifestyles and gastronomy. He develops with Thomas Keller, a famous American chef, an avant-garde collection of containers. He associates himself with personalities from the world of decoration such as Christian Tortu or Alberto Pinto who imagine for the brand beautiful scenery strong and timeless. |
