"I met the current owners Karine and Stéphane Loiseau, the 9th generation of the artisanal firm at their company premises in Montignac-Lascaux. Karine, her husband and their two daughters moved their life from Paris to Montignac to take on the business in 2016 and continue the family tradition."
"Karine says 'my great, great uncle bought the company in 1927 and my uncle moved the company to Dordogne in 1998, close to the Lascaux caves.' You can't help but think of the fact that it's here where artists created paintings using a form of pastel in the famous caves some 50,000 years ago."
"Stéphane spent four years mastering the craft, learning the traditional skills which have been passed down through the generations. Now he teaches others the methods perfected over almost 250 years."
