L'atelier d'Annanas
The workshop of a lava enameller is a unique place, surrounded by the rock of the Auvergne volcanoes. Thanks to the art of fire, these stones are magnified by the colored glass that the craftswoman brushes on with all her knowledge. Plunge into the heart of this experience, and become an apprentice enameller for a few hours. Once the lava slabs have been fired, you’ll be able to take them home and proudly present them to your friends and family, introducing yourself as an initiate in enamelled lava, a rare yet beautiful and useful craft.
