Thistle was born in 1913 from the inspiration of the Chardon service created in 1909. In 1913, the name Anglicized to become Thistle, the service incorporates its heritage through its name and the plant motif of its engraved frieze decorated in fine gold. Since then, it has shone on the finest tables.

Emblem of the city of Nancy in France, the chardon (French for “Thistle”) was the original inspiration behind a first service created in 1908. In 1913, the name was anglicized, becoming Thistle. Since then, it sparkles nobly on the greatest tables. Venitian-style stripes, bevel cuts and a decoration made from 24-carat gold or platinum adorn its parison. Thistle: more than 100 years-old and as sharp as ever.
Le chardon fut à l'origine du dessin de ce service, créé pour l'exposition de Nancy en 1909, en plein Art Nouveau. Chardon, en référence à l’emblème de Nancy, fut présenté accompagné de la devise cette ville : « Qui s’y frotte s’y pique ». Par la suite, Entente cordiale oblige, Chardon s'anglicise pour devenir Thistle et briller sur les plus belles tables. Thistle compte 110 ans de création et se parera tantôt d’or, tantôt de platine à partir des années 70.
