Activity details
My workshop, tucked away at the back of a courtyard in a building dating from the time of the Château de Versailles, welcomes you with delight so I can introduce you to my craft.
Presentation of the materials used, the origins of caning, and a demonstration.
I will then show you other techniques, such as Danish cord and rattan weaving.
The artisan
Benedicte, +5 years of experience
Craftsperson
After years spent behind a desk, then a long 10-year break to take care of my children, I finally dared to take the plunge into craft training. I then learned caning with passion. I created my business in 2020, and I have been opening my workshop in Versailles since last year.
The workshop
Versailles · Yvelines
My 50 m2 workshop is a true treasure trove. I have tables for welcoming my students and working, a large wall shelf for storing chairs awaiting restoration, and my chests full of treasures (my rattan).
