Raoul Lachenal (1885-1956). “ducks.” Art Deco.
Set of four signed ducklings. Various dimensions: 12 cm to 6 cm in height, 14 cm to 7 cm in length.
Raoul Lachenal (1885-1956).
Trained in his father's workshop, Raoul took great care to continue the family work. At Janin and Guérineau, he perfected his modeling and throwing techniques, but preferred that of casting. In 1904, while managing the Châtillon workshop, he tried to obtain flamed stoneware with rare castings. Seven years later, he created a high-fire porcelain factory in Boulogne to which he added a production of earthenware and stoneware. Raoul continued his production of earthenware and ceramics, while creating garden furniture and pottery for industrial use. His personal works, made from sandstone clay to which he adds kaolin, are decorated with enamels ranging from pure cracked white to very intense black or even red or green enamels, “partitioned” by a velvety black ring.
