Paris News Astier de Villatte to attend Fall 2023 exhibition

The Astier de Villatte exhibition was held again this year, coinciding with Maison & Objet in September.

With customers gathering from all over the world, founders Benoit and Yvan are extremely busy dealing with the occasion.

Among them, Owner Nakagawa was given special treatment.
It is clear to see that these two people, and Nakagawa himself, treasure the long-standing relationship of trust.

Eastland President Masahiko Shimada was also in attendance.

Numerous collections, including new works, are displayed on the upper floor of the exhibition hall, while the first floor serves as a reception space.
What new items did Owner Nakagawa order?
Please look forward to hearing from Brand Julie.

In this Paris Report, we would like to show you the interior design of the reception space on the first floor.
It is full of Astier de Villatte's aesthetic sense!

To all Astier de Villatte fans and Brand Julie fans,
I took lots of photos to help with the table arrangement for our guests.

What was interesting was that they had fruit sandwiches, which are still rare in Paris.
Apparently they had a Japanese chef do the catering. The neatly cut sandwiches are beautiful!

This Japanese style sandwich is called SANDO.
Did you know that it has created a category in the Parisian gourmet scene?

It's not a French baguette sandwich,
It's not a thin British sandwich.
SANDO is a Japanese-style sandwich made with finely toasted Japanese bread.

I heard that the number of bakeries and cafes serving SANDO in fashionable areas of Paris is gradually increasing.
This seems amusing to us in Japan, as we normally buy and eat sandwiches.

Benoit and Yvan, who had their eye on SANDO,
I thought he was truly a Japan expert and gourmet! (I know I sound presumptuous...)

Next door is the reception room.

Further back was the screening room, where Astier de Villatte's new movie was being screened.
The town that was the motif for this season's new fragrance, Mante La Jolie, also made an appearance.

Original sugar cubes.
I think sugar cubes are a French culture.
Since European integration, art de vivre has been gradually disappearing from Parisian cafes, but we want to protect it.

Until next time,
Avianto!
