Works of Art Design and Reproduction Rhône-Alpes

It is within a stone's throw of the abbey that Jean-Yves Sicre, a graduate of Yzeure's glassware, has installed his workshop and glass engraving shop. His creations are fine and original, on any type of support: verre glass, whisky, water jug or wine, vase, etc. It is possible to suggest to Jean-Yves a special pattern for engraving, to personalize the object. It also works in stained glass, from opening doors to the bibelot to suspend near a source of light. Do not hesitate to browse the catalogue of its achievements, this can put you on the track of a gift to offer.

Flashover is a "creator of objects in Paris", but the Lyon shop is one of the most important addresses when visiting… Old Lyon. Yes, design and modernity awaken the pavés of Renaissance streets with shimmering colours and amazing shapes for everyday objects nicely reinvented. It's hard to escape, especially on Sunday when Flashover is the only boutique open in town and you can't make the empty hands at this brunch organized by our best friend.

Jérôme Balaÿ has chosen a special theme of art crafts… A sculptor on bronze, he draws his subjects from animal representations. Indeed, he is an animal sculptor! This may seem strange at first glance but its work is of high quality. His workshop in the countryside brings together a large family of animals: pigs, boars, donkeys, goats, sheep and kids. Nothing can stop him in his desire to add to this family more new species of creatures. He invents and works the clay, the clay, before pointing out models that are cooked and made of bronze in a professional founder. After entering the foundry, the result is a solid work of art! Visits are made by appointment only, but if you want more information you can always consult its website!

Alternative shopping in the heart of Les Vans village! La Vitrine flow is home to both Florie Keller's hand-crafted screen-printing and illustration workshop and a boutique dedicated to arts and crafts and prints, run by the La Bikok association. Silk-screen printing, ceramics, lighting, recycled art and more. You'll discover a creative diversity that stands in stark contrast to the soulless manufactured objects of the supermarkets! A treasure trove of small and large "kifs" that can change your everyday life. Eating from a turned wooden plate, for example.

A top-of-the-range pocket knife, the Cellois shone in 2018 by winning the first Coutellia prize. It was a great spotlight on its creator, Nathalie Robin, co-manager of the workshop. Nathalie first learned from her husband Stéphane, who comes from a long line of cutlers, and who had won third place in the same competition in 2015. She then joined him in the arts and crafts adventure. Together, they have developed a range of sturdy knives, yet with a fine design reminiscent of Celtic lines, and where each piece is unique.

Bodo is a shop that offers eco-responsible and elegant decorative objects with a focus on craftsmanship and short tours. You will find there a beautiful selection of articles around the art of living: table art, notebooks, textile, toys, decoration, lighting or jewellery. Dorothée has chosen to offer a responsible alternative to the classic commercial offer by proposing everyday objects made of natural, durable and recyclable materials such as bamboo tableware, or stainless steel flask for a transition to the zero disposable... The range of products on offer is very wide, there is something for all tastes and all prices!
