Ceramic Vase/lamp Base Signed Gentil & Bourdet Art Deco
Artist: Alphonse Gentil & François Eugène Bourdet
This ceramic vase/lamp base by Gentil & Bourdet Billancourt illustrates the talent of the famous duo of architects and ceramists, to whom we owe emblematic achievements such as the Piscine de Roubaix and the Louxor cinema in Paris. Its relief decoration, featuring a fantastic bestiary, bears witness to the work of great precision, characteristic of their mastery of architectural and ornamental ceramics.
The finesse of the modeling and the richness of the details make it a particularly expressive and remarkable piece. What makes this vase unique and original is its silver neck and base, an exceptional finishing detail that is not usually found on this type of object. This addition gives the piece a precious and contrasting dimension, highlighting the relief of the ceramic even more. This rarity in the work of Gentil & Bourdet underlines the originality and care taken in this creation, which is part of the excellence of design and craftsmanship of the early 20th century.
