Magazine ad of Asse's poster design.
A stunning design with the Briand Cognac bottle set atop a huge
diamond that shimmers in it's brilliance. Creating a magical design
that leaves no doubt as to the brilliance of the cognac bearing the
Briand name.

Briand Cognac
"The Briand trading house was founded in 1835. After the
Franco-Prussian War of 1870, George Briand, took Edgar Boutillier
as a partner and the house traded under the name Boutillier, Briand
et Cie. A second distillery, the first one in Cognac to use steam,
opened in 1881. In 1902 George Briand, like many owners of trading
houses before and after him, was elected mayor of Cognac, a position
he kept for ten years. In 1920 George Briand retired and left the
trading house in the hands of Jean Boutillier and a new partner, Robert
de Laurière. Following his death two years later, the name was changed
to Boutillier et de Laurière before becoming in the late 1960s de
Laurière et Cie.
The Briand brand was kept and developed. With vineyards in Archiac
(Petite Champagne), St-Même, St-Preuil, and Segonzac (Grande Champagne),
de Laurière et Cie was an important trading house."
