At Bleu de Chauffe, artisanship is not an archaic notion, it is our day-to-day reality. Many of the techniques used to make our bags require the artisan to use their dexterity and intuition, and cannot be carried out by robots.
It is using machines from back in the day, the same machines our forebears used, that the artisans at Bleu de Chauffe demonstrate their skill every day. The skill of Bleu de Chauffe’s ar- tisans was recognized in 2018 when the company was awarded the title “Entreprise de Patrimoine Vivant” (Living Heritage Company) in 2018. This certificate awarded by the State is designed to uphold the standard of the exceptional skills that are emblematic of French heritage.
Bleu de Chauffe organizes regular training programs in partnership with the organization Compagnons du Devoir, in order to pass on these remarkable artisanal techniques and keep them alive.
