*Primavera ("Spring" in Italian) was the first of the French department stores to want to have a design workshop at the beginning of the 20th century.
The adventure began in 1912 with two Decorative Arts enthusiasts: Pierre Laguionie (1884-1978), director of Printemps and lawyer René Guilleré (1878-1931), founder of the Salon des artistes décorateurs.
Their objective is to promote artistic craftsmanship in the daily life of the French people on the motto of beauty and usefulness.
Decorative objects and furniture (furniture, ceramics, glassware, upholstery, upholstery, wallpaper, etc.) must be beautiful, modern and of high quality and at affordable prices. The workshop is equipped with young decorative artists such as Marcel Guillemard (1886-1932) and Louis Sognot (1892-1969) for furniture, and for works of art and ceramics by Madeleine Sougez (1891-1945) active in 1920 to 1928, Claude Lévy (1895-1942) from 1919 to 1929, Paule Petitjean (1895-1989) from 1913 to 1929, Hélène Gatelet from 1924 to 1930, Marcelle Thiénot (1907-1946) from 1929 to 1938, (Charlotte Chauchet 1878-1964) from 1912 to 1939, Wilfrid Prost (1912-1945) from 1934 to 1941, Macé from 1922 to 1923, to name a few.
The passage of creators like René Buthaud (1886-1987) or Jean Besnard (1889-1958) marked the minds of young decorators.
In the field of glass and ceramics, craft workshops are called upon such as Elchinger in Soufflenheim in Alsace, Paul Jacquet (1883-1968) in Savoie, Louis Lourioux (1874-1930) in Cher, Lucien Arnaud in Saint Amand in Puisaye , the Saint-Leu-La-Foret workshop or factories (Longwy, Quimper, Malicorne, Creil-Montereau, Sainte-Radegonde, CAB (Bordeaux Art ceramics).
