The treasures of House of Pottery of Saint-Uze

Print

ImageDo you know Saint-Uze? This little agicultural village, which became a center for pottery over the course of the 19th century, with as many as six pottery workshops, is still producing porcelain. It also has a museum which tells the story of this social and industrial adventure. You'll learn all the secrets of making porcelain, stoneware and glazed earthenware and their sometimes surprising utilisation in state-of-the-art technology. This discovery can be crowned by a visit to Revol-Jars, which specialised in culinary porcelain and then learned how to create treasures of skilfulness, making this age-old craft evolve.
