When passion meets creativity
Behind every graceful gesture lies free-spirited craftsmanship. Artistic and unique, these creations are given new life by their materials, dreaming of living it all again.
Objects come to life in the workshop
Expert artisans from every Hermès métier work hand in hand with artists and guest designers around Godefroy de Virieu, creative director of petit h.A creative process that gives rise to unique, functional objects.
Petit h creations have their feet on the ground and their head in the clouds. From terracotta and leather to silk, chic allure is reaching new heights.
Even if creations within the Petit h workshop have been designed down to the most minute detail, they still run against the grain. Excess is embraced as imagination runs wild.
The hundred and one lives of the saddle tree
Borrowed from the Conservatoire des Créations Hermès, 1960s saddle trees have landed in the petit h workshop. The ideas start flowing and petit h re-creations come to life in forms such as a sledge, a chair, a guitar, a bench, a basket or vase. The tree, the heart of the saddle, inspires surprising links between artists and craftsmen and unprecedented alliances between know-how and natural materials. Its organic curves produce objects as useful as they are hybrid. Saddle up!
