Established in 1875 in the Thérain valley of Picardy, the birthplace of French brushmaking, Altesse Studio is the own-brand of the historic Fournival Altesse company. As a sixth-generation, family-led business, it perpetuates nearly 150 years of artisanal savoir-faire. The brand is celebrated for its luxurious hairbrushes, which are handcrafted in France using traditional techniques and noble materials like olive wood, natural rubber, and high-quality boar bristles. This dedication to craft has earned the company the prestigious “Living Heritage Company” (EPV) label from the French state, recognizing its exceptional, time-honored skills.
