Introduction

UBIFRANCE, the French Embassy Trade Agency in North America is thrilled to present this year’s French Pavilion on the summer edition of NYNOW. Every year, we accompany about 20 companies on each edition of the show, to present to the American trade a selection of outstanding French companies that showcase a unique, expert savoir-faire. Each and every one of these companies is already successful in France, their craftsmanship being recognized either in niche markets or larger ones. They are excited to present their latest designs and collections on the show. This year, we are bringing together silverware, tableware, gadgets and accessories for the home, and home textile. The French pavilion will be located in the area covering booths 2940 to 3057; we can’t wait to see you there! A bientôt!

The label is granted for a five-year period and brings together exceptional French manufacturers. EPV companies are unique because they successfully combine tradition and innovation, expertise and creation, work and passion, the past and the future, international- and local-orientation. They have an eye for detail – they know how to tame a material, they perform every gesture with care and they are all guided by the same conviction: the cult of value.

ARTIGA

The ARTIGA adventure began 15 years ago when Quitterie Delfour bought out a dressmaking firm located in Magescq in Southwest France. The new manager then made a daring choice: when everyone else was relocating abroad, she decided to keep the full production chain in Southwest France. ARTIGA's inspiration is Basque canvas. This is a product of entirely natural origin, made of pure cotton or a linen-cotton blend, and it is well known for its sturdiness, its weave and its inimitable texture. From classic formats to specific widths, ARTIGA multiplies the possibilities of expression for Basque canvas: tablecloths, deckchairs, espadrilles, accessories and many more. In February 2012 ARTIGA was awarded the "Origine France Garantie" label which conveys the commitment of the brand. ARTIGA is a universe made of stripes, colors, original ideas and a unique French know-how.

TSE TSE ASSOCIÉES

For the past 20 years, Catherine Lévy and Sigolène Prébois have been designing objects, manufacturing them, and distributing them under the name Tsé&Tsé associées. The cheerful soundness of their intuition has allowed them to build a completely independent structure. They have taken risks, manufacturing unexpected objects they were the only ones to believe in such as their iconic April Vase or the Famished Tableware, often copied but never equaled.
