Robert Haviland & C. Parlon
Robert Haviland & C. Parlon’s story dates back to 1835, when William Haviland became an earthenware importer in New York. Soon after, in 1842, he opened his first porcelain factory, before Robert Haviland – the third generation – propelled it to what it is today. Hundreds of years of heritage have witnessed the family dress royal tables in the finest porcelain, including the Monet collection which was originally commissioned to refresh the dining service of French painter Claude Monet in his Giverny home. Today, two sisters – Marie-Amélie and Marie-Caroline Guillot – are at the helm, spearheading a fresh, dynamic approach towards Limoges, where they’re both from.
