We’re first conquered by the breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape and we can easily imagine the couple wanting to establish themselves here, after they met at the Centre de Céramique Bonsecours du Vieux Montréal. It’s also been Robin’s family farm for five generations. We’re therefore not surprised to see Highland cattle grazing in the pastures. Robert built the house, the workshop and then the boutique which opened in 1995.
“In the beginning, there was no road, no hydro, and we had to dynamite the rock here because we’re on the side of a cliff!” The result is impressive, especially the part of the workshop where these two, sharing their passion for clay, have kept the rock visible. In this creative oasis, the three kilns are constantly fired up because they have a full-time production of different pieces, dishware, service plates, bowls, vases, urns, etc.
