Founded in 1960, CVL is a French company that prides itself on its artisanal origins and its know-how in creating entirely personalized products. CVL's craftswomen and craftsmen are passionate about their work, handcrafting the entire collection and mastering meticulous gestures in the workshops that straddle the border between goldsmithing and industry. All the craftsmen are driven by a shared passion for an exceptional material: brass. Each piece is carefully crafted, thoroughly assembled and inspected before being packed and shipped. CVL Luminaires is proud to showcase rare and precious French heritage crafts through its creations. Thanks to its integrated design office and the in-depth expertise of its in-house designer, Emilie Cathelineau, the company provides personalized support to meet its clients’ expectations as fully as possible, and offers unequalled flexibility in the projects entrusted to it. In recent years, the company has opened up to the vision and inventiveness of independent designers such as Hervé Langlais, Pauline Deltour and Sylvain Willenz. In 2018, CVL began a collaboration with Léa Padovani and Sebastien Kiffer of the POOL studio. CVL entrusted the Parisian design duo with the creation of its new graphic design as well as the artistic direction of its collections. This fruitful collaboration testifies to a modernized brand image, and has enabled the creation of new collections in perfect harmony with the CVL spirit.
