Close friends of the famous chef, tableware designers Alain and Dominique Vavro continually create designs for the leading gastronomic destinations of Lyon and beyond.

Mikaela Dorfel, another designer with a great reputation, develops each product line around a concept enabling its identification to the brand for which it is destined.

Her work is identified by high demands in a clear formal language. Together with an excellent functionality this ensures an outstanding longevity of the design. Working within the tradition of Scandinavian design, her shapes are inspired by nature delivering a modern and elegant signature range.
