Un Petit Tour de Terre located located at the gates of Provence., invites you to discover the art of pottery in a region where history and tradition meet. Provence, famous for its picturesque landscapes, sunny climate, vineyards, centuries-old olive trees, villages with red-tiled roofs, and Mediterranean cuisine, is a dream destination for lovers of French culture.
Un Petit Tour de Terre is an artisanal pottery workshop in the village of Saint-Geniès-de-Comolas, where in Gallo-Roman antiquity, clay was used to produce amphorae and hand-built ceramics. In the 19th century, the clay deposit in the commune, over 25 meters high, supplied the village's tile factory. Today, I use stoneware and porcelain from other regions, but also the local clay from this terroir.
The workshop and store are open year-round at: 18 Chemin de Montfaucon, Saint-Geniès-de-Comolas (tel.: +33 6 1318 7000).
As an artisan potter, I would be delighted to meet you, share my passion, give you a demonstration, or welcome you for an introductory or advanced workshop, with or without full board.
