Patrick Kimbert's Petite Verrerie perpetuates the age-old art of glassblowing in the verdant Jura region of France, at Chambod.
The art of glassblowing dates back to ancient times. Only a few master glassblowers still perpetuate this illustrious tradition today. Patrick Kimbert is one of the last craftsmen to preserve the magical art of fire, glass and air.
Patrick Kimbert passionately defends the beauty of this vanishing craft.
