Mount

A chamber opened in the limestone plateau of the Causse Méjean, roughly the size of a small cathedral nave. Louis Armand, a locksmith from Le Rozier, was lowered down the natural shaft on a September day in 1897 and came back up speaking of a forest he had no words for. Four hundred calcite stalagmites stand on the floor, some over thirty metres tall, grown drip by drip from the limestone above. The cave keeps the same temperature all year, around ten degrees. A funicular descends a 200-metre tunnel cut in the late 1920s, when the chamber was opened to visitors.

Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
