MATERIALS FROM THE OLD TAVARES

This is an original establishment since there are only about ten in France. In 2011, Hervé de Coninck resumed this company of stone and commercial antiques. He buys recovery stones that he dismantle, classifies, lists and resets to resell them. They are recycled in new constructions with great pride and great cachet. At the gradine, the massette or the gouge, he regives their beauty of yesteryear to the tuffwaters of Touraine, the tender calcareous limestone of Poitou, Charente and elsewhere. It is a great open-air museum. He also forms stone-tailed companions.
