What an evening! I am very honored to have received the Coup de Cœur Prize of the ELLE des Artisanes 2023 Prize in the category of French heritage preservation professions prize ✨

It is an honor and a great joy to receive this distinction that encourages me to take this excellent manufacture a little further every day. The last bronze character manufacturer in the world, Maison Alivon has been creating tools for gilders and bookbinders since 1812 with a passion and know-how that have remained intact.

A big congratulations to the 5 winners, Cécile Feilchenfeldt, Marine BILLET, Leslie Villiaume, Marie-francoise Devichi and Solène Jolivet!

“For the third consecutive year, the magazines ELLE Magazine, ELLE à Table, ELLE Décoration and the LVMH group are joining forces for the new edition of the Prix des Artisanes, in collaboration with the INMA and Artisans d’Avenir. In line with the Group’s commitments to the development of women’s careers and the preservation of know-how, this Prize allows us to showcase the careers of craftswomen practicing artistic and excellent professions in the fields of Fashion, Design and Tableware, Vine and Wine, as well as the Preservation of French Heritage. The major new feature of this edition is the representation of a fifth domain dear to LVMH: the Professions of Jewelry and Watchmaking.”
