Over the centuries, La Rochère became a symbol of French savoir-faire, combining beauty and functionality in every creation. From the reign of Louis XI to the present day, La Rochère has passed through generations of artisans, keeping alive the techniques of mouth-blown and pressed glass while evolving with modern design.
