| Elegant french glassware from french factory La Rochere.
|
The glassmaking company of La Rochère, in France’s Franche-Comté, traces its history back to 1475, when “gentleman glass-maker” Simon de Thysac founded a glassworks that supplied the needs of locals in this rural area located between Champagne and Alsace.
Despite repeated destruction, once by a fire that destroyed the entire village and later by the Thirty Years’ War, the rebuilt glassworks grew and flourished, and was acquired in 1858 by François-Xavier Fouillot and two associates.
Fouillot’s descendants still run the company today, and their products include a wide range of elegant glassware, stemware, vases and bowls.
A gorgeous range of everyday use glassware which features the dragonfly.
