Atelier Métamorphose

Gilles Diruit set up his workshop twenty years ago in the heart of the Templar village of la Couvertoirade. It is there that he creates perfume diffusers in tinned metal and brass, taking the form of stoves and small wood and coal stoves.
It is her passion for model making that led her to create her first perfume diffuser in 1990. Today, her 1/10th scale creations are embellished with all the accessories that make them perfectly identical to her models and show her attention to detail.

To create his metal perfume burners, Gilles uses steel, tinned steel, brass, aluminum and copper.
He draws, traces, cuts (press, guillotine, guillotine), bends, punches. He uses some simple but specific machines such as a home-made tube and rod bending machine, a band saw, a frosting barrel (glassware sand), etc.
For the assembly, all the welds are made with tin, the aluminum is glued epoxy loaded metal.
The finishes, made by hand, with Zebraline, brushed and rag give an incomparable patina to his achievements.
