CR UZES

The tradition of pottery in Provence and more particularly the Gard dates back to the Neolithic period between 5,000 and 3,000 BC. This point in history, the cardial period, is when the first decorated potteries appeared. These were decorated seashells.This practice introduced a tradition which still endures in Uzès today and, in particular, in the nearby charming village of St. Quentin de la Poterie.

Today CR Uzès  and Le Fur ranges of pottery are fine examples of this local tradition. We use time-tested artisanal methods of production to create authentic, original and high-quality pots. Our refined blend of authenticity and design will seduce you as well as make it easy for you to find products in our range which will work well with your style of decoration both inside and outside.
