If you keep your eyes and heart wide open, meeting Didier, a potter at Col de Leschaux, is sure to leave a lasting impression. When asked how long he has been a potter, Didier replies, “For an eternity, give or take a few days!” He has no interest in the past; what matters to him is the present moment. He has made pottery a way of life, almost a philosophy. Creating freely and in total independence. Beyond the pieces he sells in his shop, we discover a free, intense, sometimes unsettling man… who teaches us that when what we do is consistent with who we are, we touch happiness with our fingertips. With his fingers in the clay, Didier creates happiness.
At the top of the Col de Leschaux, 15 km from Annecy, set in the magnificent Parc Naturel Régional des Bauges, stop by La Poterie du Col. Step into the world of Didier COSSIN, potter, ceramicist, and sculptor.
His works, both decorative and functional, are all hand-crafted and reflect his unique personality and originality. Great ideas for gifts and souvenirs.
Upstairs, temporary exhibitions are held, offering you the chance to discover other artists whom Didier wishes to highlight. So take the time to chat and discover an artist and exceptional artworks…
