In the heart of Avignon
Showcasing local designers and artisans
Éric Deveaux set up his boutique / workshop in 2001.
He showcased creations from a selection of local designers for 11 years.
In 2012, the boutique evolved into a collective training centre with a lively bunch of creator/artisans who made up Eric's team of 'chics filles' (elegant girls)!
They include nine local artisans and designers offering jewellery, accessories, women's ready-to-wear and a variety of creations for children.
Original, timeless creations that change with the seasons
Promoting the expertise behind handmade products
Why not pop in to this charming boutique where you'll find beautiful, locally handmade jewellery, textile accessories and feminine outfits on display: flowing or structured, colourful or printed.
They haven't forgotten your little ones either, with a whole range of knitwear and kidswear, accessories and games.
There are also paper or felt creations for the home, lamps, decorations and cellar or vegetable garden notebooks...
“Let yourself be seduced by refined silver jewellery set off with fine stones, ethnic-chic ornaments in ceramic and brass or resin creations, headbands and other head accessories. You'll find everything from city bags to summer evening clutches to accessorise your outfits.”

Meet the team
All the creators at 'Eric & les chics filles' take it in turns to work in the boutique. So they are always there to help you find the creations that are right for you, or to suggest adaptations.
They'll be delighted to answer your questions about their creations or have a chat about their creative processes - the choice of materials, the different stages of production (from drawing to design...), the techniques and tools used.
