VISION: MAKING BEAUTIFUL SILVERWARE ACCESSIBLE TO ALL

In 1948, driven by the desire to make silverware accessible to all, Guy Degrenne revolutionised the world of tableware.

With a clear vision in mind, the young entrepreneur had understood the potential of stainless steel for making cutlery and had started to appreciate the longing for modernity in France. With boldness, passion, and determination, he would go on to leave his mark on the tableware sector, and at the same time make his company a market leader.
