Bernardaud

One of France’s most esteemed porcelain houses, Bernardaud is celebrated for transforming fine Limoges porcelain into works of art. Founded in 1863 by Leonard Bernardaud, the family-owned maison has spent more than 160 years perfecting the art of porcelain making, combining exceptional craftsmanship with innovation and contemporary design.

Located in the heart of France’s historic porcelain region, Bernardaud oversees very stage of production — from sourcing the region’s prized kaolin clay to firing, decorating, and finishing each piece in its Limoges workshop. The house is renowned for its uncomprising attention to detail, producing elegant dinnerware, decorative objects, lighting, jewellery, and bespoke creations that grace luxury homes, fine dining establishments and prestigious hotels around the world.

Throughout its history, Bernardaud has embraced artistic collaboration, partnering internationally with acclaimed designers, architects, and contemporary artists to push the boundaries of traditional porcelain while preserving the craftsmanship that defines the Limoges tradition. This fusion of heritage and creativity has established the maison as a leader in both fine tableware and decorative arts.

It’s said that the artisans sometimes leave subtle, personal touches in their creations, like a tiny hidden symbol or a discreet signature, adding an extra layer of uniqueness to the already exceptional pieces. So, when you own a Bernardaud porcelain, you may be holding a piece of art with a delightful secret waiting to be discovered.
