… and from Russia
Discover pieces created by Russian artists. Our store is home to timeless pieces such as St. Petersburg’s imperial porcelain and Raketa, which have lived through generations – from Russia’s turbulent past to today’s young Millennials. Some, like Omut and Mirstores, were born into the generation Y, didn’t see the Berlin wall fall and have thus never know the Soviet Era.
The Two Historic Giants
It’s not surprising that they are both from St. Petersburg; the old capital that put creativity forward.
-
RAKETA
· Watches: A know-how and a level of quality and precision that are still too rare in France.
-
IMPERIAL PORCELAIN MANUFACTURE
· St. Petersburg: Porcelain. A finesse, refinement and Russian design that you won’t be able to find anywhere in France.
Les deux amies

Larisa Karaban
DIVINA TERRA DIVINA BELLEZA.
Perfumery and cosmetics:
Larisa Karaban’s path and that of the founder of Créateurs Club d'Ici et de Russie have always been entwined, since the beginning of the Perestroika. Larisa began a new chapter of her life at the same time as our founder with one single priority: quality ingredients and products.

MURIEL ROUSSEAU
DAVAI DAVAI, MOSCOU
Textiles:
This French artist-designer in Russia offers objects and clothes created using recycled textile and printed with her own paintings. Our personal favorites are her down jackets. They’re indeed perfect for a walk around Le Touquet. Note that she painted the Créateurs Club d'Ici et de Russie before it even existed, resulting in the COLEKTOR Créateurs Club’s bag with 150 items produced.
The two expats
-
Alex + SVET
Jewelry:
Despite designing their jewelry in France, we guarantee you, they are still very Russian at heart! No one can resist their playfulness, their charm, their kindness or the colors of their creations.

Catherine Laskine–Balandina
STATE OF MIND, MOSCOU
Perfumes and teas:Though we have met Catherine on multiple occasions in our past lives, we had never “done business together” until today. We are certain that the Touquettois will love her last creation that blends tea and perfume as much as we do.
The Two “Youngsters”:
Both extremely talented and growing in very different universes.

Katya KINDRAS

Nastia KLIMOVA
OMUT, YAROSLAVL
· Bags and apparel / Metal chain accessories: Undoubtedly the most singular designer, an artist you must discover.
