Pieces made by hand in Louise Traon's studio in Saint-Ouen.
Louise set up her studio in the Saint-Ouen flea market (93). She produces small series of enamelled stoneware whose shape and color are designed with the materials she collects. She seeks solid earths for everyday pottery and develops a range of satin enamels that recall the mineral origin from which they come.
Ashes, granite, chalk and wild clays are its main raw materials which fuel constant research work.

Like any light-colored satin and matte enamel, coffee and tea can cause cups to vary in color over time. The cups are given a patina according to the use of each person. But no toxicity because no metal oxide in the composition.
NOTE: Like any handcrafted product, these pieces may have slight variations in shape, color and thickness.
