The Birth of a Famous French House
Founded in 1948, The House of DEGRENNE is a great story of entrepreneurship driven by the dream of a accomplished goldsmith passionate. Visionary man, its founder.
Guy Degrenne quickly understands the potential of stainless steel and then embarks on a quest: rethink "les Arts de la Table" by democratizing goldsmithing. So, when post-war France rebuilds itself, his intuition leads him to a revolutionary idea: to recover the armor steel of the tanks used during the Battle of Normandy to make stamping dies for stainless steel cutlery.
This is the birth of the The House of DEGRENNE: strong of a process with audacity hitherto unparalleled, it will mark its imprint tables of yesterday and today.
