Striking mid-century French studio pottery vase in the manner of Vallauris. This is a sculptural free-form piece with a bold organic silhouette and pierced central form, very much in keeping with French studio ceramics of the 1950s-60s. The surface features a heavily textured, almost bark-like finish with layered earthy glazes in deep browns, greens and darker tones. The form is abstract and architectural, making it a strong decorative statement whether displayed alone or as part of a mid-century or brutalist interior. A highly tactile, visually interesting piece with real presence – ideal for collectors of Vallauris-style pottery or sculptural ceramics. Details. Height: approx. 25cm. Origin: French, Vallauris style. Period: Mid-Century Modern. Material: Studio pottery / ceramic. Finish: Textured, multi-tonal glaze. Use: Decorative vase or sculptural display piece Condition: Good vintage condition overall. There are a few small chips, visible in the final photograph. These are minor, do not affect stability or display, and the asking price reflects this. No cracks or structural damage. Please review all photographs carefully as they form part of the description.

Here we have a superb studio pottery jug by Jean Austruy of Vallauris, France! I LOVE the design of this, something I’ve never seen before but it’s wonderful. He retired in 1990 but continued to sculpt, moving onto bronzes. This is just spectacular in my eyes, I love the feel of it, it’s almost like a fat lava type glaze with texture, each off-circle dot indented into the pottery. I love the abstract nature with squiggles woven in and out of the pattern – it’s just superb and much nicer in person. This would date to somewhere around the 1960’s. This is perfect for your home, a collector of Jean Austruy, French pottery or an enthusiast of mid century art/pottery. Including handle etc this measures approximately 7.25 inches by 6.25 inches by 4.75 inches. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask.

DELPHIN MASSIER / LUCIEN LÉVY-DHURMER – iridescent lustre vase c. 1890 Vallauris / Golfe Juan. Bluebell painted design 4 handles formed in shapes of leaves. In excellent condition with no damage or repairs. Metallic iridescent cols bright and vivid with great lustre. If ultra critical, some nibbling to inner rim of base which has no cosmetic or other affect on the piece and very sight wear around mouth of vase. Please check images as they form a large part of the description. Massier’s metallic luster glazes produce the dual properties of reflectivity and transparency to create iridescence. In order to achieve this, Massier fired his ceramics in a three-tiered process at increasingly lower temperatures. He applied the final glaze created from a metallic clay compound with a brush. When the blackened vessels had fully cooled, they were buffed until shiny to reveal his iridescent inspirations of nature. Each piece produced was a unique object revealing not only the hand of the artist but also the variable effects of temperature, natural elements and their interactive relationships. Among the many international awards earned, it was Massier’s ceramic glazing techniques using turquoise metallic luster which captured the world’s attention. Massier’s glazes are are illusory interpretations fused into fired earthenware. Conversely, the ceramic object’s solidity belies its ephemeral nature which constantly changes in light. This duality naturally inherent to this medium is a theme which Massier echoes in his subject matter. Acidic colors, so characteristic of Massier’s later lusterware, blend into an abstraction suggestive of the essential elements of fire, water, air and earth. The Massiers began collaborating with Lévy-Dhurmer, whom Clément appointed studio artistic director that year. Lévy-Dhurmer was a collector of Hispano-Moresque ceramics decorated with iridescent glazes derived from metals such as copper, gold, and silver. The influence of the Spanish earthenware, with its bright, reflective metallic glazes is seen in his pieces for the Massiers. The Massiers and Lévy-Dhurmer worked together on innovative shapes, the rediscovery of luster glazes, and the use of luster glazes with etching to bring about fantastically complex effects. Lévy-Dhurmer’s decorations were influenced by the prevailing fervor for Japanese, Islamic, and other Near Eastern ceramics but, a Symbolist at heart, he often rejected realism in favour of mysticism and spirituality. His unique contribution was his ability to produce shapes and patterns that seem to shimmer with life, while suggesting deeper meanings. Lévy-Dhurmer also painted and many works are exhibited in museums and important private collections. Paris : Musée du Petit Palais. Paris : Musée du Quai Branly. Paris : Musée d’Histoire Contemporaine. Musée des Beaux-Arts de Quimper. Musée de l’Histoire de France (Versailles). New York : The Metropolitan Museum of Art’The Met.
