LA ROCHERE COLLECTIONS

La Rochère Glassware

Crafted in France - Loved for Generations!

Step into the world of La Rochère, France’s oldest glassmaker. At Malmaison, we’re proud to be Australia’s largest stockist, curating the widest range of timeless French glassware since 2003.  Discover glassware with history in every line, and beauty in every pour.

Since 1475, La Rochère has been producing glassware in the heart of France, making it the oldest continuously operating glass factory in Europe.  Each piece is a quiet celebration of heritage, hedonism and home, crafted not for display, but for daily life. 

At Malmaison, we curate La Rochère because we believe in the beauty of the everyday.

From the joyful clink of a morning juice to candlelit dinners with loved ones, these pieces are made to be lived with, sturdy, dishwasher-safe and designed to carry memory as much as wine.

A French Icon, Reimagined

Whether you love the rustic charm of the Napoleon Bee collection, the regal etchings of Versailles, or the Renaissance romance of Lyonnais, every glass tells a story of place, of legacy and of the small pleasures that shape our lives.

Sensory. Strong. Singular.

La Rochère glassware is thick-walled, generous in weight and full of light-catching detail,  the kind of pieces that feel grounding in the hand and timeless on the table.  Embossed with iconic motifs and inspired by centuries of French art, cuisine and culture, each collection offers a tactile experience that awakens the senses.

Made for the Moments That Matter

La Rochère’s artisans marry historical craft with modern ease.  These are pieces to keep close.  Whether you’re setting a table for one, or hosting under fairy lights, they’re not about perfection, they’re about presence.

About La Rochère Glassware

Each La Rochère piece is made from durable, pressed soda-lime glass, known for its strength, clarity, and everyday practicality.

• Dishwasher safe for easy, effortless living

• Thick-walled and weighty offering a grounded feel in the hand

• Moulded by artisans, using a traditional pressing technique refined over generations

• Thoughtfully designed with embossed motifs and timeless silhouettes inspired by French history and everyday rituals

You may notice a faint vertical seam, a hallmark of authentic pressed glass.  This reflects the moment the mould opens, and is gently fire-polished as part of the finishing process. This subtle line is a natural part of the glass’s character, especially on pieces with embossed designs.

Please avoid extreme thermal shocks (like transferring directly from fridge to oven) to preserve the integrity of the glass.

La Rochère Represents Centuries of Craft Made to Be Cherished Every Day!
