Take the exceptional opportunity of "Journées du Patrimoine" to come and visit my workshop and discover my boutique.
Since 2017, I specialised in wood carving and antique restoration, conservation and renovation of wood furniture and chairs. As woodcarver, I can give each commission the individual attention it requires and will reproduce any pattern. I am also able to work in the style of any period. I would be happy to discuss with you any project and to help when planning your interior design. So, let your imagination run wild, you may be surprised with what can be created. Many things are made in the studio, including: all aspects of woodcarving, relief carvings and sculptures.

Since October 2017, Béatrice Bonte-Maubeuge sculptor-ornemaniste, works in her studio in Pau. As a sculptor and cabinetmaker, Béatrice alternates between the restoration of old sculptures and furniture, personal creations or on the commission and misappropriation of recovered objects to give them a second life.
Wood is a living material and requires a long process of preparation and stabilization.
Gouges, chisels, clasps, gigadous, planes are all miraculous tools that extend the hand and transform a banal piece of wood into an art object.
The sculptor often starts his search with a sketch or a drawing and continues his work with a modelling rendering the thickness and depth of the motif. Then he attacks the wood taking into account the constraints of this material (veining, density...). Finally, the finish will highlight the character of each wood species.
