ARCAM GLASS
Read moreLocated in Vertou's Vertonne area, Arcam Glas is Simon's design studio. But it's also the place where you can be introduced to glassblowing techniques. The workshop can accommodate up to 6 people. During the workshop presentation, you'll learn about all the elements that make up glass (sand, soda, lime, etc.), the different techniques involved in its manufacture (mixing, melting, thermoforming, sandblasting, cooling, etc.) and the tools required (blowing rod, kiln, etc.). Then it's on to the making! With the first glass picking (the glassblower begins by "picking" (or gathering) a mass of molten glass in the pot or crucible furnace, or in the basin furnace). The glass is then worked and the tools practiced. The first step is to obtain a drop of glass before inlaying color. Then we repeat the glassblower's gestures to shape the glass into a unique piece. You'll leave the workshop amazed and delighted with a drop, a paperweight with a color and a unique glass, or another masterpiece created by Simon, Anaïs and Thomas.
