* 2000: Construction of an electric kiln especially equipped to allow "crystallizations on porcelain". It is the beginning of the production of Large Crystals in his St-Martin-sur-Ocre workshop (45).
 
The large variety of crystalline glazes is a field of infinite and passionante research. The coloured and harmonious universe of the large crystals becomes his favorite ceramic hobby.
 
* During 2002, the fruits of this research are abundant and the effects obtained are spectacular. He then decides to show his work to the public.
