la bastide adrech

We will be staying here (thinking about it) in Monasque and traveling around the area. I am interested in crafts of the area to purchase. What should I be looking for? Thank you.

La Bastide de l%26#39;Adrech is quite charming.



Manosque is l%26#39;Occitane%26#39;s homebase so you can visit the factory and stock up on some products.



Crafts you will find are:



- santons (small saints) which are the terracotta manger figures Michel Gilli is in Manosque in Rue Grande.



- Moustiers earthenware go to Moustiers Sainte Marie there are many artisans and faience makers



- olive tree wood carvings



- various articles out of provencal fabric: table cloths, clothing,...

Thank you a hundred times over for a very helpful response to my post! It is wonderful when others reach out to help fellow travelers :)
