Saints Pères: Parisian porcelain and a unique retail experience

In Paris, in the heart of the district where the tradition of refined porcelain was born, Saints Pères reinvents this heritage with a contemporary eye. Here, tableware is no longer a simple tool: each piece is conceived as an object of encounter, sensation and emotion. The company proudly bears the unique “Porcelaine de Saint-Germain-des-Prés” label, a symbol of excellence and cultural roots, and offers a new approach to gastronomic pleasure.

“We don’t make dishes, we shape objects of experience.”

Saints Pères does not use the classic term “tableware”. The company creates objects of transcendence, where gesture, form and material dialogue with meaning and use. Each plate, each cup, each bowl becomes an invitation to rediscover taste and reinvent the act of eating. The shapes are balanced, the materials straightforward, and the presence of the object is radical without ever being ostentatious. This is not decoration: it’s the architecture of sensations.

The Burning ear (translated into French as“Les oreilles qui sifflent“)

Saints Pères’ first Objet de Transcendance, Les Oreilles qui Sifflent is a sculptural censer that symbolizes all the useless, negative words that surround us. Simply light the incense and let the smoke carry these words away, restoring calm. Each piece comes with eight high-vibration incense cones and a box of matches, to purify the air and restore silence.

Between heritage and contemporaneity

At the crossroads of heritage and design, Saints Pères renews the great tradition of Paris porcelain with a contemporary language. The company proudly bears the unique label “Porcelaine de Saint-Germain-des-Prés”. Here, each piece is unique, hand-crafted without shared molds, so that the object you hold exists nowhere else. Craftsmanship mingles with thought, and every curve, every thickness, every sound the porcelain makes is intentional. The aim: to create forms that speak to the senses and invite the awakening of the moment.

Paris’s very first olive oil bar

The experience continues with The Extra Virgin Bar, the very first olive oil bar in Paris. Here, oil becomes an object of contemplation as much as tasting. Hand-crafted porcelain bottles house rare oils from the four corners of the globe, which can be enjoyed on site or taken away. Each drop reveals the richness of a terroir, and each bottle transforms the act of pouring into an attentive, almost ritualistic gesture. It’s an invitation to relearn how to smell, to taste, to appreciate the subtlety of flavors, and to see olive oil not just as a simple ingredient, but as an element capable of changing the look of a dish and the memory of a moment.

A sensory experience around coffee

Saints Pères has imagined a unique coffee experience, where you can enjoy an exceptional coffee, including the house’s signature pistachio & olive oil latte. Each cup is served in porcelain designed to awaken all the senses, where shape, texture and weight contribute as much to the moment as to the coffee’s aroma. The gesture of holding the cup, the subtle sound of contact with the porcelain, the warmth that spreads through the hand: everything is designed to transform simple tasting into an aesthetic and contemplative ritual. Here, coffee is not just tasted, it is experienced, and each sip becomes an exploration of sensations, a dialogue between body, mind and the art of the table.

Customized porcelain workshops, collaborations and experiences

Saints Pères offers porcelain workshops and privatizations (modeling or illustration) for individual customers, private groups or companies. Participants are welcomed into our Parisian factory, in the heart of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, for a complete immersion in the world of porcelain. Today, it is the only porcelain factory in Paris, offering an authentic and unique experience. The company is also developing personalized collaborations with brands, hotels and restaurants. Each project is conceived as a co-creation, from the creation of the shapes to the development of the decorations and motifs. This approach makes it possible to adapt each piece to the partner’s universe and desired use, whether for exclusive collections, limited series or hospitality projects.

An obvious boutique

On Rue des Saints Pères, the boutique embodies this manifesto: natural light, straightforward materials, objects in motion, always at hand. Here, the art of the table is experienced and touched. Porcelain, objects of transcendence and olfactory creations are presented as suspended gestures, ready to transform everyday life into an aesthetic and sensory experience. An exceptional gift for the holidays, Inserex olive oil bottles combine gastronomy and personalization. Each custom-made bottle is available in 50cl (€160) or 190cl (€190), olive oil included.

A unique and special moment highly recommended by the editors.
