With its deep hues and mineral textures, the "Sidérite" chest seems to be carved from a precious rock. Successive layers of glazes create deep effects, where their silky nuances rub shoulders with the raw material of the earth. The cabochon on the lid crowns this piece with an aura of elegance and mystery. Every detail is the fruit of a masterful alchemy between minerals and the intense heat of fire. The work on coloring oxides gives this piece a chromatic palette evocative of sediments and precious metals.

Jean-Claude Canonne's chests evoke a world where ceramics meet memory and intimacy. Each piece, designed with great technical mastery, is conceived as a precious shelter, ready to house secrets, objets d'art or timeless souvenirs. Inspired by the shapes of sacred shrines, these chests symbolize the link between earth and sky, incarnation and elevation. Each tells a story, magnified by complex processes and a rich palette of textures and colors.
