History of Herbeau Creations

Where the charm and gracious living of the past merge with the technology and convenience of the present. Herbeau Creations has been a leader in the manufacture of superbly crafted sanitary ware, sinks and faucetry for over a century. Founded in 1857, five generations of family tradition have made Herbeau faucets a leading source of authentic 19th Century French kitchen and bath products.

A pipe fitter by trade, Louis Herbeau helped install the city's first gaslights. Later, he became involved in a program to modernize the water pipes underneath the streets.

In 1857, Louis Herbeau opened one of the first showrooms in France devoted exclusively to L'Art du Sanitaire (the art of sanitary ware). The Herbeau showroom in Lille rapidly gained a following among socialites and aristocrats. His son Desire, who proved to be a prolific designer, joined Herbeau. The early bath suites Desire designed reveal the Art Nouveau influence of the times.

In the 1950's, Jean Herbeau decided to expand the company's kitchen line. Trained as an architect, Jean initially designed a kitchen faucet. Instead of using a standard lever or cross handle, Jean fashioned the handle to resemble the gearshift of a car, specifically the prized 1904 DeDion-Bouton automobile driven by his father, Desire Herbeau.

In 1991, a long-standing relationship between Holger Baron and the Herbeau family led to the formation of Herbeau Creations as the exclusive Herbeau distributor for the U.S. and Canada. By 2004, Herbeau Creations moved into a brand-new 20,000 square foot building in Naples, FL. The building serves as the company's North American head-quarters and distribution hub.

Much has changed since the days Louis Herbeau took a piece of copper tubing and imagined it as a faucet. Today Herbeau makes faucets, sinks, tubs and toilets that feature the latest in plumbing innovations. And, along with an indefinable je ne sais quoi, Herbeau is assured its place in the continuing history of kitchens and baths.
