French artisanal creations: Foliove's expertise
AN ALL-STAR TEAM
CLÉMENTINE TROFF BRU
CATASTROFF
Clem, a budding 22-year-old creator, artist, and seamstress based in Rennes (35).
CLÉMENTINE TROFF BRU
What a pleasure and what pride to collaborate professionally with my daughter Clémentine, a professional seamstress. I have long admired her creativity, dynamism, and constant good humor.
Under her brand Catastroff, she creates handbags, backpacks, cardholders, changing bags, travel pouches, bag organizers, and other sewing items. Her collections are available on her website.
Clémentine does all the transfers of my illustrations onto Foliove bags and tote bags from her workshop in Rennes. She also created the patterns she uses to sew all the Foliove fabric pouches, with materials sourced exclusively in France.
Clémentine carefully selects each fabric for its sturdiness, and each lining color to best match the Foliove illustrations she transfers onto it. All fabrics are 100% cotton, Oeko-Tex certified.
Please note that each pouch is handmade by Clémentine. As with any handcrafted product, dimensions may vary slightly for each piece, but the difference will always be less than 1mm.
AUDREY NALDA
During an open house at a retailer near me, I met the gentle Audrey. After training in French bookbinding, Audrey creates notebooks with exclusive finishes, using natural materials.
She infuses her "adventurous" spirit into each notebook to make it unique and sturdy, ready to accompany you everywhere.
After explaining her manufacturing techniques to me, we agreed to create travel journals, diaries, or memory books, crafted by Audrey's skilled hands and adorned with exclusive Foliove illustrations. For each notebook, I adapt the original design used for my posters, extending it to cover the entire surface of the notebook.
Audrey performs true goldsmith's work, carefully handling the precious notebook with gloves to achieve the final result you see on my website.
ROMAIN FROM NOMAD BOUGIES
Making candles is a complex profession that involves the criminal and civil liability of both the manufacturer and the reseller.
To offer you reliable, safe, and quality products, Romain from Nomad Bougies has completed numerous technical and administrative training courses. Nomad candles have undergone mandatory testing and comply with all applicable standards (for this type of highly regulated product).
When you buy a Nomad candle, you're treating yourself to a scent, an atmosphere, an olfactory and visual journey with a colorful ©Foliove illustration.
The amber glass containers are made in Europe, as is the soy wax used and the braided cotton wicks.
Our collaboration is short-circuit, as we are located less than 20km apart.
