Discover the handmade pottery
 There
are handmade pottery pieces born from the potter's imagination
for a specific use, such as a melon holder, or just
for the beauty of the act. For the potter is the god
of clay ; from his hands come jars, pots, casseroles,
in what seems like the twinkling of an eye. |

But
there is the preparation of the clay and the fabulous
work of the hands, the spinning, the turning out. After
comes the drying in the mildness of the workshop or
outside in the sun. Then it's time to go in the oven :
its loaded, fired, taken out. Beforehand, it's decorated,
with warm and luminous colours that enchant. The tools
are simple, primitive : ribs, trimming tools for the
initial work Imagination and craft replace the rest,
such as the rope trick for the big jar. The master's
once over completes the work.
