Journal

We have chosen to gather all information related to our work in this section.

This part presents the materials we use, the techniques we apply, and the tools we rely on every day.

These elements directly influence the way we work.

Some properties, even if they seem distant from our creations, help to better understand the manufacturing processes and the technical choices that arise from them.

Traditional Techniques and Method Choices

We also present the medieval and ancient techniques that inspire us, as well as the criteria that guide our decisions. 

We explain why we favour one method over another, in what context it is used, and what the limitations of each approach are.

Life in the Workshop

We also address aspects related to the daily life of the workshop, such as working positions, safety considerations, and the acquisition or recovery of raw materials.

These factors, while seemingly practical, influence both the quality of the work and the way in which the work is performed.

Handmade Tools

An important place is given to handmade tools.

We describe their design, their evolution, and their role in the creation process.

From forging to shaping and to the most delicate finishing touches, each step of the work is explained in detail.

Trials, errors, and even failures are fully part of the creative process.

They testify to the path of artisanal research and constitute a valuable source of learning.

A Space for Sharing and Transmission

This journal is a space for transmitting skills and for making artisanal work more accessible.

We aim to provide access to technical knowledge that is sometimes complex, simple but precise explanations, and a faithful vision of the realities of manual work.

Ask Your Questions

You can submit questions on topics that have not yet been presented on the website, such as our methods, our tools, our miniature creations, or related subjects. The form is designed for this purpose.

The more precise your question, the more complete and useful the answer can be for everyone.

Important Clarifications

The questionnaire does not request any personal information. It does not allow direct contact, and we do not respond individually.

Questions will be addressed in the “Journal” section of the site. For any other request, such as a quote or information about our products or workshop, please use the contact page.
