With over 160 years of history, Rennotte has been able to endure over the centuries and become a living French heritage.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Founded in 1860<\/strong> by Dieudonn\u00e9 Fran\u00e7ois Joseph Rennotte, the Rennotte<\/strong> house was established in the Faubourg Saint-Antoine<\/strong>, an emblematic location for furniture in Paris<\/strong>. At that time, the company manufactured brass flutes, metal on rods and mouldings. When he died in 1918, his son Joseph took over the workshop which became “Maison J. Rennotte<\/strong>“.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1882<\/strong>, Joseph Rennotte bought the Moulin de la Chatarde<\/strong> from the Kaffel sisters in Breuil-en-Vexin<\/strong> (France) in order to develop his heritage and introduce a new offer of all kinds of copper products<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The choice of this mill wasn’t a coincidence because the craftsmanship and machinery that still today feeds the Rennotte cold-drawing offer<\/strong> can be traced back to this mill. Indeed, the mill, installed in 1859<\/strong> by Sieur Bordier, was used to run a workshop for umbrella sticks<\/strong>. Then, under the ownership of the Kaffel sisters, the workshop started to manufacture fasteners for work clothes<\/g>, aluminium cutlery<\/g>,… From 1882, under the ownership of “Maison J. Rennotte<\/g>“, the mill wheel was used to operate machines for drawing, profiling, stamping, cutting brass and making all kinds of hardware for stylish furniture<\/g>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of 1974<\/strong>, “Maison J. Rennotte<\/strong>” absorbed several renowned houses: the Dechelle-Dreix<\/strong> and Coulon<\/strong> houses, specialising in ornamental bronzes, and then the Julien<\/strong> and Riot<\/strong> houses, bronze gilders. In 2007, the company became “Rennotte Rio<\/strong>t” with a complete know-how in the bronze trade<\/strong>: cold drawing, surface treatment, restoration of art objects, creation, decoration on metals and a rich and unique collection of furnishing and decorative style bronzes.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In 2019, convinced of Rennotte<\/strong>‘s future potential and its importance in the French craft industry, former employees of the company joined forces to buy out some of the company’s activities and gave it a second wind under the name “Rennotte Etirage<\/strong>“.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Rennotte is a unique house that combines tradition and innovation, know-how and creation, work and passion, heritage and future, international and local. <\/p><\/div>
