On the 300th anniversary of Encyclopédie illustrator Louis Jacques Goussier’s birth, two Parisian partners—drawn to the spirit of the Enlightenment and 18th-century art—founded YLUSTRE in 2021. Ylustre, Chandelles des Lumières, meaning “Candles of Light,” reinvents the candle in an innovative way, liberating it from the traditional glass jar and adorning it with original designs.
In an age of indifference and technology, Ylustre seeks to bring light and wonder to everyday life, answering a universal longing for beauty and enchantment. Inspired by the union of reason and fantasy, wisdom and playfulness that defined the 18th century, Ylustre chose the mythical Chimera as its emblem. Through its distinctive lines and graphic identity, the brand creates a world rich in imagination and surprise.
