“We are very proud to celebrate this evening the bicentenary of Perrier-Jouet champagne with this unique experience, as a genuine tribute to the extraordinary craftsmanship of the house and his passion to impart the sense of art de vivre French to future generations.”
Daniel Arsham says:
It was the spirit of continuity of Perrier-Jouet I wanted to show, creating a diptych that combined the essence of Perrier-Jouet and my universo. The initial inspiration came from the vines and cellars of Perrier-Jouet, detail from Emile Galle anemone.
The house is also one of the first who invented the stamp on the caps with vintage vintage in order to prevent counterfeiting. This is one of the reasons why Emile Gallé, the leader of the school Art Nouveau worked with the brand in 1902 to a design for the first time the magnum of Perrier-Jouet.
Hervé Deschamps, cellar master of Perrier-Jouet, explains why Perrier-Jouet has collaborated with visual artist Daniel Arsham:
For 200 years, we have continued this artistic tradition with “cuvee of the Bicentennial,” we have chosen the artist Daniel Arsham. The pieces made by the artist, limited to 100 copies are made of white stone containing two magnums of 1998. The cost would be € 10,000 each.
