An artisanal workshop

I have always wanted to make a profession of Art. When I was young, I made music and then drew, until I graduated as a technician in applied arts. But to find work as an artist and make a living from it is complicated. So you need luck, an internship in the stone trade and enamelling at Volvic, was my revelation! Immediately afterward, a company was looking for a young person to start in the enameled lava trade. It was perfect for me, I felt I had to do it! Hard work, research, discovery, failure and success. In short, a daily passion that still captures me. And 30 years later, Tradition Pierre in turn embarked on this superb craftsmanship and called on me for my know-how. Nothing is more beautiful than the glow of an oven and this lava in all its brilliance!

I chose to learn the craft of a lava enameller. I find it an atypical, manual job, which also requires a lot of thought, meticulousness.
The fact of of receiving, applying and conveying know-how, in order to make this profession last over time appealed to me.

Being from Auvergne, I’m proud to be a part of Tradition Pierre and to help promote the special stone originating from our volcanoes.
I dreamt for a long time of working in a family-oriented business, where teamwork is essential and everyone gives the best of themselves, to ensure that our work is as successful as possible.
What satisfaction it is when one of our customers tells us that the creation we made for them is “sublime”!
