Degrenne

In 1943 Guy Degrenne took over his fathers foundry and managed to gather raw material from abandoned tanks. His ambition was to make stainless steel cutlery attainable to every family. By 1968 his brand started to show first signs of success as different departments of production and design were added. Booming television marketing helped to commercialise Degrenne and in the end of the 1980s it had become an empire, producing glass, crystal, cutlery, tableware.
