Crystal d’ici et d’ailleurs : Verrier

In the early 2000's, Christian CREPEAUX began his training as a glassblower with Eric LAURENT in the Drôme department, which he followed for 4 years. From 2008 onwards, he took specific training courses with international glass artists: Xavier LENORMAND, Scott CHASSELING for the roll-up technique, Lucio BUBACCO for glass with a blowtorch or John de WITT for his enamel-based painting work on molten glass. In parallel to these trainings, he started in 2006 the creation of his workshop which will be operational in 2008 to continue the implementation of his learning before becoming a professional in 2017. Since 2015 his workshop is installed in Monthermé to have a workshop adapted to the development of the techniques learned during his long and rich training course. The productions of the workshop Christian CREPEAUX makes unique pieces and sculptures in real crystal. These are unique decorative pieces, numbered and signed: bottles, vases, lamps, etc. Open to collaborations, he regularly associates other materials to his work such as marble, wood and he regularly works in association with Catherine MERICER Jeweller for pieces combining glass and metal. Christian CREPEAUX also works in inclusion with precious metals: gold, silver, palladium, caplain, etc. His inspiration is based on what surrounds me and in particular nature in its broadest sense.
