Revol

Welcome to our Revol boutique, a French porcelain manufacture founded in 1768 in Ponsas, in the Drôme region, by Pierre Revol. More than two hundred and fifty years later, Revol is still a family business, run by the ninth generation, based in Saint-Uze at the heart of the Rhône valley. The house is one of the few manufactures to produce its own porcelain paste from kaolin, feldspar and silica, which allows it to produces non-porous porcelain that resists thermal shocks. This specialisation gave birth to culinary porcelain, a signature invented and trademarked by Revol for professional kitchens.

Revol's expertise

Revol's expertise is built on a few precise technical points that make the difference in the kitchen: mastery of the paste, very high temperature firing, resistance to thermal shocks and professional stacking. Around 4 million pieces leave the Saint-Uze workshops every year, exported to over 80 countries.

• Signature culinary porcelain: oven, microwave, freezer and dishwasher safe
• In-house paste made in Saint-Uze (kaolin, feldspar, silica)
• Resistance to thermal and mechanical shocks calibrated for hospitality

Choosing your Revol porcelain

What is culinary porcelain and why is it a Revol signature?

Culinary porcelain is a signature developed by Revol: a non-porous porcelain fired at very high temperature, capable of going from the freezer to the oven, then to the table, then to the dishwasher, without cracking or absorbing odours. Where classic tableware porcelain stays confined to service, Revol culinary porcelain can be used for cooking itself. This versatility is what opened the doors of professional kitchens around the world.

What makes the Crumpled Cups collection stand out?

The Crumpled Cups have become iconic: the porcelain faithfully reproduces the folds of a crumpled paper cup. This contemporary twist creates an immediately recognisable object, used in hospitality for coffee, amuse-bouches or sweet-and-savoury desserts. The collection comes in several sizes and colours.

How can I make the most of Revol culinary porcelain's thermal resistance?

Revol culinary porcelain is engineered for demanding workflows: oven ramp-up, freezer-to-oven with no waiting time, microwave and professional dishwasher. In practice, this means you can prepare dishes the day before, store them chilled, then reheat them directly at service time — a workflow that is particularly useful in catering and for buffets. To preserve longevity, still avoid direct flame and moving a piece straight from a hot oven onto a very cold or wet surface.

Which Revol porcelain should I choose for oven cooking?

For cooking, the Belle Cuisine range is the reference: ramekins, individual dishes, cocottes, mini-cocottes, rectangular dishes. All pieces are designed to be used in conventional ovens, microwaves and dishwashers, and to withstand thermal shock. For hospitality presentation, Basalt also offers a matte black stone-like finish that pairs well with contemporary cuisine.
