ARTamin'

Nestled in the heart of Champagne, at the Moulin de la Fleuristerie in Orges, ARTamin' was born in 1994 from the passion of Annette and Emmanuel Geoffroy for a vanishing craft: the creation of artificial flower accessories for fashion and haute couture. A true sanctuary of ancestral gesture, the Manufacture perpetuates a tradition inherited from Paris - Levallois-Perret - established on this hydraulic site steeped in over 760 years of history, with machinery dating back to the Belle Époque.  

Recognized as a Métiers d'Art enterprise and labelled Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant (Living Heritage Company), ARTamin' produces entirely by hand, using the techniques and tools of the 19th century: pistils, petals, leaves, fruits and cotton-wrapped wire, crafted for floral designers the world over.
