The game of boules

4 boulistes santons sold together. Also sold individually on the site.

In Provence, the game of boule or petanque is part of the national sport and is very popular. It’s a collective game that brings together several players. Whether in the afternoon or the evening, the people of Provence play boules all year round.
Here, our 4 bouliste santons take this game, so popular in the land of cicadas, very seriously.

All the santons de Provence sold here are made in Provence according to an ancestral tradition by a local craftsman from clay and fired by hand before being painted.
The adult santons are around 8/9 cm high and all the animals and accessories are the same size.
They’re just like us – bigger, smaller, thicker, thinner!

They are therefore compatible with other collections of 8 / 9 cm santons.
