Petite Friture
Petite Friture lighting and furniture - Cheerful design meets elegance
Petite Friture is a French design company that was founded by Amélie du Passage in 2009. The Brand aims is to promote young talents and design together with them a collection of objects, lights and furniture that creates “vibration” and helps to savour the everyday life. The elegant and cheerful collection includes designs from creatives such as Pierre Favresse, Claesson Koivisto Rune, Daniel Emma, Sam Baron and Andreas Engesvik.
For a decade, Petite Friture has been on a quest to find objects that are bold, innovative, and distinctive - embracing the concept of "otherness". Each new collection represents an invitation to embark on a journey to a dreamland.
Some of Petite Friture’s most popular products include the Vertigo series, Cherry, Mediterranea among others.
Luminesy offers all of Petite Friture's products - in case you do not find what you are looking for, contact us!

About Petite Friture
Most recently, the company has become a fully purpose-driven company, with 3 key pillars:
- Creating pieces that are well thought out - this is achieved by embracing European production, the circular economy, Green logistics, and creating durable items that will last a lifetime
- Social and local engagement - by working with APF France Handicap and embracing an inclusive society based on solidarity, the brand aims to create a local community of creatives and artists, through workshops, conferences, and a whole range of events
- Cultivating talent and ideas - finally, the brand aims to foster entrepreneurship and new ideas within the company, both for Petite Friture or in their personal endeavours
With these 3 key pillars in place, Petite Friture combines their strengths to serve the company's mission :“Contribute, through our design collections, to making good emerge from beauty”.
Meaning ‘Small Fry’ in English, if you try get an exact explanation of the name, you will not get a clear answer, that's because the name "Petite Friture" is intentionally created to convey a sense of the positive French outlook on life, rather than having a straightforward translation. It represents a joyful moment, the sun, and sharing a delicious meal with those you love. This embodiment of joie de vivre is reflected in the company's collection of expressive furniture, home accessories, and lighting, featuring a diverse range of one-of-a-kind designs.
Petite Friture's story is woven from the experiences and encounters it has had. Since 2009, the brand has collaborated with over 40 designers and creatives from 11 different nations, embracing diversity in terms of age and background. These partnerships have resulted in a collection of furniture, lighting, and designs that are truly unique, each piece contributing to a larger story when used together in a space. The end result is a narrative that brings a sense of delight and joy.
Some notable personalities include Vertigo Pendant lamp's creator Constance Guisset, the Toronto-based Canadian designer Tom Chung, the design and architecture agency Studio Pepe among many other great minds.
