Know-how

Gien earthenware is a living material born from the natural alchemy of sand, clay, and kaolin, whose warm and sensual surface evokes a unique emotion.

Our workshop reflects a fully integrated manufacturing process and a closely guarded recipe: each step, from mixing the elements to making the molds and applying the final glaze, is carried out in Gien using exclusive formulas and specific expertise.

To bring Gien's tableware and other items to life, we rely on three precise firing processes, twenty-six distinct components, and the expert touch of thirty master potters, heirs to nearly two centuries of tradition.
