The valley of luxury glassmaking
Discreet but world-renowned, the Bresle valley has carried on an exceptional glassmaking tradition for centuries. Around 75% of the world market in luxury perfume bottles is made here, for houses such as Guerlain and Chanel.
The glass museum
At Blangy-sur-Bresle, the glass museum, housed in the Manoir de Fontaine, tells this story through fine collections. Glass-blowing demonstrations bring the skills of the master glassmakers back to life.
