Charlotte: The beginning of RICE…

RICE was founded late 1998 – born only a few months after my son Max.

The idea of starting RICE was “under construction” for a while – my French husband Philippe and I wanted changes to our lives – we had lived in Paris for almost 15 years together. We both had great jobs, but felt the need to slow down – have a life where we both travelled at the same time and enjoy a more quiet lifestyle…

During a VERY long lunch in the French country side with Charlottes old School friend – we decided to try selling some of the things he could get made, and then combine with some items from Madagascar – all this whilst having our base in Denmark.

Our designs are inspired by “the good old days” and are very “down to earth” with lots of detail. We hope to colour you happy when you are washing, cleaning, baking and relaxing in your home.

We have a big heart and strong social ethics. We support Global Compact, and we are the first Scandinavian company certified by the SA8000 standard, based on our projects with suppliers around the world.

We wish to surround you with homely objects – down to earth but still funky, fun and functional.
