Hammer customers!
May 1, 2023 is the potters’ clearance sale
It doesn’t take much to bring together the crowd of snoopers, scouts, hunters, touts of rare pieces, workshop rejects and other desirable avatars piled up “pot of money” “pot of money” every first of May: day of lily of the valley and jarring pots. All survivors of the Last Judgment, for the one and only reason that this crowd of objects and this large group of people have the same beautiful thing in common:
Quite a character!
Every year under the large Monier hall of Saint Quentin la Poterie: around twenty potters from France and Navarre sell off the mishaps from several research and production firings. These lame pieces, unworthy of being contemplated in the showcases of excellence, deserve a familiar look and the invention of another use. They shine, breathe and meet you in the courtyard of miracles hoping to stay on the good side of life as long as possible. On the one hand, the proceeds from their sale at low prices cover the investment of unsuccessful batches, on the other hand, it feeds a solidarity fund intended for colleagues in distress.
In Saint Quentin la Poterie, market square!
On May 1st in St Quentin, there is also the professional flea market, which takes place at the same time as the clearance sale on the market square; Once you’re finished with your fill of pots, go hunting in the selected stands of real second-hand dealers and antique dealers! Flea market and antiques information: Luc Veyrat 06 73 59 35 44
And don’t hesitate to stay all day in Saint Quentin: restaurants, café, ice cream parlor welcome you.
Of course, you can also spread out among the 24 potters’ workshops in the village and with numerous craftsmen. Saint Quentin well deserves its title of Town and Crafts, national label and guarantee of quality. The cultural office / ceramic capital can inform you about all these activities: 04 66 22 74 38.
