Jean Gerbino (1876-1966) - Polychrome Mixed Earthenware Vase With Two Handles - France, 20th Century
Baluster-shaped vase in polychrome mixed earth with two triangular handles, signed Gerbino Vallauris under the base.
It features the mosaic decoration specific to the workshop of Jean Gerbino, a master ceramist based in Vallauris (France), known for his original technique of "colored earth mosaic", developed in the 1930s.
The piece offers a beautiful harmony of warm and cool tones, alternating stylized floral motifs, geometric volutes and interlacing colored earths.
The contrasts between blue, green, powder pink and browns bring a decorative richness characteristic of Gerbino know-how. The vase adopts a pot-bellied shape with a narrowed and hemmed neck, flanked by two rectangular handles giving a look that is both traditional and modernist.
