The workshop in detail
Bring your creativity to life and transform clay into two personalised plates!
From the moment you enter, Aurore will warmly welcome you with enthusiasm and passion in a creative and inviting atmosphere. After a brief theoretical introduction on ceramic tools and techniques, it's time for hands-on experience!
The initial encounter with clay will be captivating. You'll take pleasure in preparing the clay, ensuring it is ready to be shaped. With careful attention, you'll shape two slabs of locally sourced and high-quality stoneware clay.
Then comes the long-awaited moment of creation! Step by step, you'll be guided through the process of moulding two unique ceramic plates. You'll be focused and diligent, proud to witness your creations take form in your hands.
Once your plates are shaped, it's time to decorate them. You'll let your inspirations run wild, using various techniques such as botanical stamping or engobe application.
To top it all off, you'll enjoy a convivial and relaxed moment with the ceramic artist, as a complimentary beverage will be provided.
After cleaning and tidying up the materials, you'll entrust your pieces to the artisan, who will handle the drying, white glazing, and double firing process. You'll arrange the details for retrieving your pieces directly with her.
At the end of the workshop, you'll eagerly anticipate collecting your two personalised plates, bearing your unique touch, story, and creativity.

Meet Aurore
Ceramic Artist
Aurore is a joyful and determined artisan, committed to living her passion!
After studying hotel management, administration and tourism, she had a successful international career in the luxury hotel industry. Driven by curiosity and passion, she also studied interior design, which led her to discover clay, ceramics and pottery, a fascinating and wide-ranging craft.
In 2020, she took the leap, leaving everything behind to fully dedicate herself to her passion. She established her own startup and welcomed her first students in June 2021.
Driven by her ecological values, Aurore prioritises sustainability in her craft. She uses predominantly rainwater in her studio, recycles clay, and supports local suppliers for her materials.
Her style is minimalist and zen, drawing inspiration from the rich tradition of pottery in Japan, where it is considered a timeless art form. Her cosy little studio serves as a haven of tranquility, where Aurore warmly welcomes participants and shares the therapeutic benefits of working with clay.
What makes her even more endearing is her love for animals! Her dog, Fluffy, is always by her side, ready to greet participants with gentle cuddles!

Merci à Aurore pour nous avoir fait découvrir sa passion ! Nous avons passé un très bon moment et nous avons adoré l’idée d’estamper les assiettes avec des végétaux. Une expérience à réitérer !

Deux belles rencontres : Aurore et la poterie. Merci Aurore pour ton accueil, ta gentillesse et ton partage de ta passion. Je n’avais jamais travaillé l’argile et j’ai trouvé cela très agréable et relaxant. Je recommande fortement l’atelier. NB : les « œuvres » doivent encore être cuites et émaillées
