France
Pavilion – Scene from IOFT 2012
|
Today I would like to
introduce the exhibitors of
the France Pavilion!
The France pavilion
will be the standard-bearer
for the modern French
glasses trade, showcasing
creative brands with
avant-garde designs and
high quality materials
that are able to create
new trends through
their use of their innovative
technologies.
The best way to truly
understand and feel the greatness is by
actually seeing the frames and communicating with
the designers in-person at the show…but we
will give IOFT NEWS readers a special taster by revealing some of the
exhibits.
