Description:
Henri Roché pastels are highly coveted for their particular texture, ability to adhere to most mediums, and intensity of colors. For over 300 years, La Maison du Pastel has handcrafted these pastels, used by artists like Degas. Today, the company is run and operated by just two women — Isabelle Roché, a distant relative of Henri Roché, and Margaret Zayer. But it's taken them decades of work since Isabelle took over the dying company in 2000 to build it back up to where it is today. We visited their secret workshop in the French countryside to see how La Maison du Pastel is still standing.

The ECB is comfortable with this divergence, even if it means a weaker currency that could potentially stoke inflation. Recent data shows that underlying inflation in the euro area unexpectedly rose in May for the first time in a year, adding to the concerns about lingering consumer-price pressures. The ECB's decision will be accompanied by quarterly forecasts and a press conference, which will be scrutinized for hints of future policy intentions. Money markets are currently betting on two rate reductions this year, with a small chance of a third.")
