Guided tour of the Vase aux lions at the Ecole Boulle

On Tuesday 14 October at 5.30pm, the Fondation Etrillard organised a guided tour of the work to be reinterpreted for the 2nd edition of the Âmes d'Œuvres Craft Competition for craftpeople and designers: the Vase aux lions.

This tour will take place at the Ecole Boulle. This mecca of arts and crafts and design, located in the 12th arrondissement of Paris, is a close partner of the Fondation Etrillard, with which it organises the arts and crafts programme "Collection source d'inspiration". One of its teachers, Pierre-Alain Le Cousin, is a member of the jury.

Sophie Mouquin, head of the Foundation's collection and also a member of the jury, shared the history of this iconic 18th-century Italian vase. The jury and the Fondation Etrillard team were on hand to answer candidates' questions about how the competition works. Watch the video opposite for a summary of the visit.

There are still two months left to enter the 2025-2027 Âmes d'Œuvres Competition.
