Atelier Crociani
La Môme Group has chosen to entrust the manufacture of its tableware to Gérard Crociani, ceramic craftsmen, from father to son, for three generations. Gérard Crociani has been a ceramist in Vallauris since 1994. He inherited, he says, the “know-how of his father”, Francis Crociani. “However, my work is different, my father was an artist and created only unique pieces of decoration. I took over his trade by working in series. The work is long. First there is the drawing, the choice of colors and then the firing. All these steps are magical because it is always a surprise, you never know what it will look like ! The Crociani workshop provides tableware for big names such as the Eden Roc in Cap d’Antibes, the Maya Bay in Monaco or the restaurants of the Alain Ducasse group. It manufactures all the restaurant services for the La Môme Group: presentation dishes, plates, but also decorative pieces such as jars and candles.
