Astier de Villatte

Astier de Villatte was founded in 1996 by Benoît Astier de Villatte and Ivan Pericoli, together with members of the Astier de Villatte family and friends from the École des Beaux-Arts. The company combines multiple creative activities: an artisanal ceramics workshop in Paris, a letterpress printing plant at l’Haÿ-les-Roses, a publishing house, and a perfume creation workshop. It sells its creations in five boutiques — two in Paris, one in Seoul, one in Milan and one in Tokyo — as well as in 32 countries around the world through retailers such as John Derian in New York, Sue Fisher King in San Francisco, Liberty in London and Isetan in Tokyo.

Benoît Astier de Villatte and Ivan Pericoli founded their company in 1996, together with members of the Astier de Villatte family and friends from the École des Beaux-Arts. They draw their inspiration from the history of decorative arts, popular arts and neglected objects. Gradually, the duo assumed sole responsibility for the company, building its reputation through word-of-mouth rather than advertising strategies. In this way, Astier de Villatte constructed a unique identity, combining multiple creative activities: an artisanal ceramics workshop in Paris, following in the tradition of 18th century Parisian manufacturers and bringing the art of stamping up to date; a letterpress printing plant at l’Haÿ-les-Roses, one of the last in the world to print books using lead; a publishing house; and a perfume creation workshop. Astier de Villatte sells its creations in its five boutiques — two in Paris, one in Seoul, one in Milan and one in Tokyo — as well as in 32 countries around the world, through retailers such as John Derian in New York, Sue Fisher King in San Francisco, Liberty in London and Isetan in Tokyo.
