Small Vase By Jacques (1926-2008) And Dany (1933-2010) Ruelland

Charming vase with a swollen belly in pink glazed ceramic, Ruelland signature under the base. Perfect condition. Born in 1926, Jacques Ruelland studied painting at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Versailles. There he met the sculpture student, Danièle Dupin, six years his junior and future wife in 1951. It was in 1952 that the couple decided on the artistic adventure of clay, which allows freedom of expression. Together, they completed their artistic acquisition: Danièle creates the form and Jacques decorates it. After a workshop in Versailles, the couple settled in Saint Germain des Près (rue de Buci) until 1970, to migrate south, to a small village Les Angles, near Avignon. Their production is characterized by a family of objects that vary in color and shape. The nuances result from the superposition of colored glazes. A few shades of enamel worked differently give an infinite number of nuances, sometimes letting the color of the earth shine through. From 1955 to 1980, the couple participated in the two sessions of the Salon des Ateliers d'Art, which allowed the marketing of their production. Based in the south, Jacques and Dani Ruelland invested in revitalizing their region. The couple stopped their production in 1991.
