AGE-OLD KNOW-HOW IN LIMOGES
The purity of the kaolin drawn from the deposits near Limoges in 1768 gave rise to the famous porcelain. Today, the factories are still working with passion, making the town and the Haute-Vienne department the center place for ceramics. DEGRENNE perpetuates this patrimonial know-how: the hand of man intervenes up to 10 times before the creation of a piece.
PORTRAYING AND RENEWING THE FINER THINGS IN LIFE, FRENCH STYLE
From breakfast to dinner time, Maison DEGRENNE is still committed to meeting the needs of homes and restaurants alike.
With the unique expertise of its artisans, the brand has certainly left a mark on history. With the spirit of innovation making up its DNA, the company is committed to portraying and renewing the finer things in life, French style.
