NOTICE
A major figure in the post-war revival of French ceramics, Georges Jouve (1910-1964) made his mark with an instantly recognizable style, combining sculptural forms and deep glazes. A former student of the École Boulle, he explored the frontier between decorative art and sculpture, working alongside designers such as Jean Derval and Roger Capron. His stylized birds embody the formal freedom of the modern movement. Close to the spirit of Vallauris, his work appeals to lovers of 1950s design. A rare work at the crossroads of art furniture, ceramic sculpture and plastic poetry.
