Photo – Biot is a charming medieval village nestled in the hills of the French Riviera, just a few kilometres from Antibes. Known for its narrow-cobbled streets, stone houses, and panoramic views, Biot exudes an old-world charm that draws artists and travellers alike.
Biot is internationally renowned for its unique bubble glass, or verre bullé. This distinctive glassmaking technique, developed in the 1950s by the Léger family (including the famous artist Fernand Léger), involves trapping tiny air bubbles in the glass during the blowing process, giving each piece a signature speckled look. Today, Biot remains a hub for artisan glassmakers and hosts several studios where visitors can watch the process firsthand.
