A new tableware idea for your shopping in Paris: the Gien Faience Manufacture !

The Manufacture de Gien was created in 1821 in the same named city  (Val de Loire region ) by an English manufacturer, Mr Thomas Edme Hulm ( known as Hall).

Benefiting from his family experience in faience manufacturing, he intended to develop in France the business of the English fine faience. The company specialized in tableware and was quickly successful with international awards. It even had participated from 1906 to 1980 in the Parisian métro decoration with all the faience tiles. You can still see them in many tube stations.

The tableware collections are beautiful.

And the ones with Parisian scenery will be a perfect souvenir…

In 2023, the Manufacture de Gien even collaborated with the famous fashion designer Jean-Charles de Castelbajac !

You can buy these products on the Manufacture de Gien e-shop, in their 2 Parisian boutiques (Gien Madeleine & Gien Jacob), in corners in Main Department Stores or in various retailers shops.
