TOURBILLON – NEW
World-renowned for its crystal ware, Christofle brings a new material to the Art of the Table with Tourbillon: blown glass, a collaboration with Alya Tannous. Born in London, with Levantine roots and Parisian at heart, Alya Tannous studied literature and theatre at Queen Mary University, London.
In Paris, she began her career in luxury goods, joining the Haute Couture house Christian Dior, and then the Pia de Brantes Public Relations firm. Alya discovered blown glass, while travelling in Egypt with her mother. Who is, Lina Tannous, a celebrated interior designer. Inspired by this delicate and ancestral technique, which was developed in the Middle East in the first century BC, Alya immediately decided to devote herself to this half-forgotten craft. Her creations are works of art for everyday living, that express her idea of elegance.
The collaboration between Christofle and Alya Tannous has resulted in six new pieces: a champagne flute, a red wine glass, a white wine glass, a water glass, and two candlesticks. Elegant and delicate, the pieces in the Tourbillon collection are suited for daily use. Thanks to their use of borosilicate glass, which is more resistant to heat and wear, than conventional glass.
