Created in France in 1995, Terres et Couleurs is a non-profit association that wants to promote coloured earths (ochres,

revive the use of these natural mineral pigments.
Since its creation, Terres et Couleurs has gathered 500 members in France and abroad (mainly producers and retailers of coloured earths, architects, colorists, craftsmen, researchers...).
