FRENCH FARMHOUSE (1)
Tucked quietly into the rolling hills and fields of lavender in the south of France are these centuries-old farmhouses and cottages.
Stony and rustic, their simple beauty has stood the test of time with a charm and elegance that still inspires us today. These little clay representations mimic the moss- and mineral-laden white stone facades and the terra cotta rooftops with purely organic, unpainted clay. I hope these pieces bring your memories and fantasies of the French countryside to life.

Each "maison" is handbuilt in my atelier in Europe. The only material I use is a mineral and natural cellulose fiber clay that hardens strongly and naturally. This non-toxic clay, in white, ochre and terra cotta, is from the coast of Spain. All textures and rustic effects are achieved only with this clay.
