Marianne Gassier from Bijou Contemporain is organizing an exhibition based on PEBBLE JEWELS !

DATES : from DECEMBER 1st to 12

INAUGURATION friday DEC 3 at 6 PM

WHY PEBBLES ?
Because ALL Collioure’s beaches, here, in the south-west of France, where Pyreneans “dive” into the Mediterranean sea, are ONLY with pebbles, and that the FIRST REACTION of TOURISTS (ALL TOURISTS !) is to throw pebbles in the sea !!!
SO, the Collioure’s jeweller, Vincent TORGUET had the idea to create a line of jewels with these Collioure’s pebbles …. And Marianne thought it would be fine that all jewellers bring their “pebble” to the “edifice” !!!!
The first reference … of course, is … the ROLLING STONES !! 🙂 Make all your pebbles ROLLING towards Collioure !

SO, EVERYBODY, make your stone ROLLING from your river, beach, countryside, city, to COLLIOURE ! all “stones” are welcomed !! :-))

DATES : from NOVEMBER 30 to DECEMBER 12

RECEPTION DATES for JEWELS :  between NOV 25 to NOV 29

PLACE of EXHIBITION : CENTER of COLLIOURE, the old City Hall building.
