In the early 20th century, Georges Lalo, a creative and ambitious young man employed in a printing and stamping workshop, had a dream to come to Paris and start his own company. He made this dream a reality in 1920 when he rented a small space along the rue Richer and G. Lalo, a maker of luxury writing paper and envelopes, was born.

G. Lalo has always aimed to be the gold standard in written correspondence. To this day, the company continues to maintain its long-standing commitment to high quality and craftsmanship.
