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.

Maison de la Nacre, Ile d'Aix
Sur l’Ile d’Aix, la boutique Maison de la Nacre est très bien achalandée et attirante. Les bijoux et objets en nacre ou avec de la nacre sont beaux et, pour la plupart, à des prix abordables. L’accueil y est également très bon. Lors de notre visite, mon amie a trouvé son bonheur et craqué pour des boucles d’oreilles très belles. Et de fait, nous avons oublié d'aller visiter le musée, ce sera pour une autre visite !
