Glassblowers

Les Infondus

Profile

Chloé Grevaz and François Dubois, nomadic glassblowers, immersed in history and creation, met in the workshops of the National Glass School in Yzeure, in the Allier region. They completed three years of training there before being recruited by the Cristalleries Royales de Saint-Louis. During their eight years at this excellent glassworks, they refined their skills, refined their techniques, and developed a collaborative working relationship that would take them far.

In 2011, François was awarded the title of Meilleur Ouvrier de France (Best Craftsman of France), with Chloé at his side as his assistant. At the same time, they continued their apprenticeship with glassmaker Allain Guillot, a MOF (Professional Craftsman of the Year) based in the Dordogne region.
In May 2014, they founded their own workshop together: Les Infondus. They then left the world of salaried work to embrace a life of independence and exploration. Their practice has become nomadic, punctuated by traveling demonstrations across Europe, while remaining rooted in their Moselle workshop.

Today, their work revolves around three areas: archaeological experimentation, the creation of historical facsimiles, and the production of contemporary tableware, designed and crafted entirely by them.
