In five stages: brief and scoping, research and sketches, prototyping, artisanal production, delivery and installation. A single point of contact accompanies each project from start to finish.
Yes — every bespoke creation is signed Maison BVM and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
All our creations come with a guarantee on manufacturing quality. Maison BVM also supports its clients with maintenance and any repairs over time.
Our core craft is mouth-blown glass, free-blown or mould-blown. Depending on the project, we draw on material techniques (coloured glass, inclusions, sulphide, filigree), finishing techniques (wheel cutting, patinas) and shaping techniques (casting, sculpture).
Each piece is hand-blown by Léon Brachet de La Valette Monbrun, co-founder and master glassmaker of Maison BVM. Trained for 13 years alongside the greatest master glassmakers around the world, he personally signs each creation.
The timeline depends on the ambition of the project — from a few weeks for a simple piece, to several months for complex bespoke installations. A detailed schedule is established from the sketch phase onward.
