THE FRENCH LIVING HERITAGE COMPANY LABEL
Since 2019, Ciléa has been awarded the "Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant" (Living Heritage Company) label, a distinction granted by the French State to French companies that master excellent traditional craftsmanship.
Thirty years of handmade manufacturing, recognized.
WHAT IS THE EPV LABEL?
The EPV label is a mark of recognition from the State, established to distinguish French companies possessing excellent industrial and artisanal know-how. It is awarded for a renewable period of five years.
It is the only State label awarded to a company for its entire activity, guaranteeing the excellence of its know-how.
There are currently 1,035 EPV-labelled companies in France, across the entire French productive fabric. Ciléa is one of them.
CILÉA JEWELRY, UNIQUE EXPERTISE
Émaline is not learned through traditional courses. It is passed down from hand to hand, in the Rennes workshop, after years of practice. Stéphane to Cyril. Stéphane to Améline. A gesture learned, repeated, perfected, until it becomes natural.
Cutting, coloring, engraving, assembly – each step demands a precision that cannot be improvised. This is what a state label confirms.
RENEWED. CONFIRMED.
The EPV label is awarded for five years and then re-evaluated. Ciléa obtained it in 2019 and has renewed it ever since. Each renewal is a new confirmation, a maintained requirement.
