Cap de la Chèvre

Pick any four 4-inch tiles — National Parks you've been to, a Smokies set, the four seasons of one place. $ for a set of , cork-backed, ready to live on the table.

Each tile ships in a kraft box, tied with cream ribbon, with a handwritten note from the studio if you'd like to add one.

Three or five different vistas, hung together — a chapter of places you've been, or want to go.

Cap de la Chèvre is the southernmost point of the Crozon peninsula in Finistère, Brittany, on France's far western coast. It closes the northern side of the Bay of Douarnenez and faces Cap Sizun across the water of the Iroise Sea.

The name means Cape of the Goat in French. It refers to the wild goats that once grazed the heather and steep cliffs of the headland. The Conservatoire du Littoral now manages the land and keeps the moor open.

The cliffs reach nearly ninety metres above the Iroise Sea, the tallest on the Crozon peninsula. They are made of Armorican sandstone laid down in the early Ordovician, and the Atlantic has cut sea caves and arches into their base.

Looking south across the Bay of Douarnenez you see Cap Sizun and, further out, the Île de Sein. To the north sit the Pointe de Pen-Hir and the Tas de Pois sea stacks. On the clearest days the islands of Ouessant and Molène appear to the northwest.

The GR34 coastal path loops the headland and continues east toward Saint-Hernot and the Maison des Minéraux, and north along the cliffs to the Pointe de Dinan. A short loop from the car park runs about three kilometres; the full cliff circuit runs about seventeen.

The Mémorial de l'Aéronautique Navale was installed in 1988 in a former coastal battery just inland from the semaphore. It honours French naval aviators who have been lost in the North Atlantic since the founding of French naval aviation in 1910.

Late spring through early autumn brings the gentlest wind and the longest light. Heather flowering in August and September gives the moor its pink-purple cast. The headland is exposed to the open Atlantic; winter days bring real wind and very little shelter.

It has been a meaningful gift for our customers with ties to the Breton coast. Cap de la Chèvre is one of the most loved walks on the Crozon peninsula, woven into the GR34 and into family weekends from Brest. A Small or Medium with a handwritten note from the studio carries well.

The slate sea, the warm sandstone, and the bent heather sit well in coastal-modern, Atlantic-modern, and quietly maximalist rooms. The piece holds its own against grey-and-cream interiors and adds depth to palettes built on oak, linen, and aged bronze.

Yes. Coastal-modern is moving away from beach-pastels toward darker, weather-true Atlantic palettes: slate, heather, sandstone, salt-white. Cap de la Chèvre reads as a cliff-edge piece rather than a beach piece, which works in rooms that already carry a lot of natural light.

A single Large reads well above a small console or a reading chair. Above a sofa, a four-tile Mural carries the wall, and a nine-tile Mural is what we recommend for sofas wider than seven feet. The Triptych suits a narrow hallway or a stairwell.

Yes, with the Dura Satin or Matte finish. Both are scratch-resistant and hold up to splashes, steam, and daily wipe-downs. The Glossy finish is for framed wall art only and is not recommended for kitchens, showers, or backsplashes.

A microfibre cloth and clean water. No abrasives, no household sprays. The colour lives in the ceramic surface, so it does not fade with normal cleaning, but harsh solvents can dull the finish over time.

Yes. Every WenderVista piece is made by Reid Wender in our Knoxville studio, and the painting of Cap de la Chèvre is original to the studio, not licensed, not sourced from a stock library. Each tile is hand-finished in-house.
