craftsmanship
Since the beginning, Tartine et Chocolat has cultivated the art of passing things on, creating pieces that span generations and accompany precious childhood memories. Faithful to a classic, chic and timeless style, the Maison favours simplicity and authenticity, far from fleeting trends. Every detail, material and finish reflects a French standard of excellence, carefully upheld by the teams at the Lyon workshop, where collections come to life in a spirit of excellence and refinement.
The importance of materials
At Tartine et Chocolat, the quality of materials guides every creation. The brand mainly favours natural fibres – cotton, linen, wool and cashmere – which now make up nearly 80% of the collections. All materials are OEKO-TEX certified, guaranteeing the absence of harmful substances for children and the environment. The dyes are 100% natural, and no toxic products are used in either the raw materials or manufacturing processes.
Craftsmanship and iconic pieces
From newborn to home, Tartine et Chocolat cultivates a shared commitment: that of recognised European craftsmanship and iconic pieces designed to last. Organic cotton capsules and velvet pyjamas made in Portugal, personalised throws made to order in Portugal, in 100% cashmere or 100% wool, exceptionally soft, gustavienne-inspired furniture made in Lithuania, crafted according to the tradition and expertise of 17th-century cabinetmakers, from premium solid birch sourced from sustainably managed Northern European forests… Every creation reflects the same pursuit of quality, comfort and timelessness, accompanying both life’s first moments and everyday occasions.
This commitment is also expressed through hand embroidery made in Madagascar on a selection of ready-to-wear pieces. Inherited from precious artisanal expertise, it brings a touch of délicatesse and poetry to silhouettes, making each garment a unique creation, designed with respect for craftsmanship and time.
Responsible commitments
Aware of its impact, Tartine et Chocolat is committed to a progressive and sincere CSR approach. The brand develops sustainable collections designed to be passed down from generation to generation, and limits overconsumption through permanent lines and considered development of new products, particularly beyond textiles. It is committed to using materials that respect the environment and children’s health, guaranteeing the absence of nickel and heavy metals, a strictly controlled formaldehyde concentration (≤ 20 ppm), and the use of faux fur as an alternative to animal fur. Tartine et Chocolat also works to reduce its environmental impact through an organic cotton line without packaging, offered in reusable pouches and protected by a recycled plastic polybag, as well as through particular attention to energy and resource consumption. These commitments are supported by a demanding selection of partners and respect for fair working conditions, with the constant aim of offering responsible children’s fashion without ever compromising the elegance and softness that define the Maison’s identity.
