The glass tradition in Provence dates back thousands of years, but it has has been a major industry in Biot since the 1950s.
This factory invented bubble glass, mastering the bubble and imprisoning it between two layers of glass to transform a defect (a bubble) into a feature of quality which also makes each glass unique.
Visitors can watch the glassblowing in practice and also have the chance to buy some souvenirs. There are various different objects including glasses, vases, chandeliers, jugs and pitchers.
