Amandine, the expert hands behind every personalised boule

Amandine, 9 years of precision and passion

Every personalised pétanque boule tells a story. Thanks to Amandine, these stories come to life with passion and precision, right in our workshop in Saint-Bonnet-le-Château.
As a logistics agent specialising in personalisation, Amandine ensures that each order is not only accurate but truly reflects the spirit of the person who placed it.
From engraving by milling, to text checks and logistics prep, she brings special care to every step. Behind her precise movements lies expertise, dedication, and above all... heart: because even in 15 characters, you can express an emotion.

A daily routine of precision and emotion

A daily routine of precision and emotion

Behind the scenes at the Obut workshop, Amandine juggles daily between processing orders, managing logistics flows, and handling personalised engraving requests.
As soon as the boules arrive via the storage system, she takes over: checking order slips, verifying the message, and setting up the milling machine…

From engraving to shipping, Amandine orchestrates every detail

Amandine works with a steady hand, a sharp eye, and above all, a love for well-crafted work. At the crossroads of logistics and personalisation, she has embodied Obut’s sincere and down-to-earth standards for over 9 years.
In her hands, every pétanque boule becomes a unique object, ready to carry your words, your memories… and a touch of her finesse.

"When I prepare a personalised boule, I know I can’t make a mistake. It’s often a gift, a symbol, something meaningful."

One engraving, a thousand emotions

Amandine joined Obut out of a passion for well-crafted work. What she values most? Autonomy, trust, and the invisible bond that forms between her and the customers—even from a distance.

"I don’t see the people who will receive the boules, but I imagine them. I think: this boule will surprise someone, it might even bring a smile."

One engraving, a thousand emotions

Because engraving means passing something on

Engraving isn’t just about inscribing a word into steel.
It’s about capturing an intention, expressing a connection, preserving a memory in just 15 characters.
At Obut, Amandine knows this better than anyone.

"I don’t engrave boules. I engrave moments," she says, without a hint of pride.

Because engraving means passing something on

"What I love about my job is that there’s always meaning behind what I do. Every engraved boule is a gesture meant for someone."

Amandine, every engraving tells a story

"Behind every engraved boule, there’s a steady hand, a lasting passion, and Amandine’s smile".
