A look back at the history, the values and the new signature of this exceptional house.<!--more--><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Christofle<\/strong> was founded in <strong>1830<\/strong> by <strong>Charles Christofle<\/strong>. Born into a family of industrialists specialising in precious metal work, he was fifteen years old when he became an apprentice to his brother-in-law Hugues Calmette, a manufacturer of &#8220;provincial jewellery&#8221;. Wishing to develop his business, Charles Christofle changed the destiny of his company by turning to goldsmithing.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Charles Christofle revolutionised the production of goldsmiths&#8217; and silversmiths&#8217; wares by registering patents for gilding and silvering using the electrolysis process. The House of Christofle thus became the official supplier to the French state.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Christofle then went on to sublimate the tables of the <strong>Orient Express<\/strong>, the transatlantic liner <strong>Le Normandie<\/strong> and <strong>the Concorde<\/strong>. Today, Christofle still brings its touch of elegance to the greatest restaurants such as<strong> the Spoon, the Louis XV in<\/strong> <strong>France<\/strong>, all of <strong>Alain Ducasse&#8217;s establishments in the world, the Circus and the Mercer Kitchen in New York, the Bellagio in Las Vegas, the Taillevent in Tokyo<\/strong> and many others.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Christofle, between tradition and innovation<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For decades, Christofle has been perpetuating traditional know-how and celebrating French savoir-vivre throughout the world.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Chistofle is an art, a fork passes through 100 hands to achieve such quality,&#8221;<\/em> says <strong>Emilie Metge Viargues, CEO and President of Christofle.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>But the House&#8217;s talent also lies in its ability to innovate and adapt to the times. Christofle is constantly reinventing itself and offering a new perspective on the art of the table. Its Mood collection challenges codes, conventions and the traditional French table setting.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Co7i3JtOcss\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\">\n<div style=\"padding: 16px;\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: row; align-items: center;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 40px; margin-right: 14px; width: 40px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 100px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 60px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 19% 0;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; height: 50px; margin: 0 auto 12px; width: 50px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"padding-top: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"color: #3897f0; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 550; line-height: 18px;\">Voir cette publication sur Instagram<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 12.5% 0;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: row; margin-bottom: 14px; align-items: center;\">\n<div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(0px) translateY(7px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; height: 12.5px; transform: rotate(-45deg) translateX(3px) translateY(1px); width: 12.5px; flex-grow: 0; margin-right: 14px; margin-left: 2px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(9px) translateY(-18px);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-left: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 20px; width: 20px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 2px solid transparent; border-left: 6px solid #f4f4f4; border-bottom: 2px solid transparent; transform: translateX(16px) translateY(-4px) rotate(30deg);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-left: auto;\">\n<div style=\"width: 0px; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-right: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(16px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; flex-grow: 0; height: 12px; width: 16px; transform: translateY(-4px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-left: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(-4px) translateX(8px);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center; margin-bottom: 24px;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 224px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 144px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;\"><a style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Co7i3JtOcss\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Une publication partag\u00e9e par Christofle (@christofle)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\" async=\"\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>A new visual identity<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Emilie Metge Viargues unveils Christofle&#8217;s new visual identity exclusively to <strong>ISG Luxury Management<\/strong> students. <strong>The Art Recherche Industrie<\/strong> agency and its artistic director <strong>Ramdane Touhami<\/strong> have gone back to the roots, reinterpreting the first historical logos of the House.
