MOTHER-OF-PEARL HOUSE
A museum with a store, where you can buy pearly jewelry in Ile-d'Aix.
Listed as a remarkable natural site, the Ile d'Aix is an ideal place for a stroll. As you stroll around, you'll have plenty of time to visit this museum, created over 70 years ago by Yvonne and Léon Gallet. For almost 40 years, this family-run business has been the lifeblood of the region, and today continues to perpetuate this ancestral activity, which is only practiced on the island. Learn more about a rare craft, the life of marine molluscs and the construction of their shells. You can also buy pearly jewelry in the store.
