Roger Capron - Glazed Ceramic Wall Bouquetière, 21 Cm - About 1950-60
Roger Capron (1922-2006)
Wall-mounted glazed ceramic flower pot
Height: 21 cm
Wall-mounted flower pot in black glazed ceramic with metallic highlights. The back, reserved in bisque, is pierced by a suspension eyelet and bears the workshop stamp: CAPRON / VALLAURIS / FRANCE.
The body, ovoid in shape and resting on a pedestal, features a body decorated with a frieze of geometric motifs in green enamel - alternating triangles forming a series of chevrons - framed by horizontal fillets. The truncated cone-shaped neck, with a marked groove at the shoulder, flares out into a funnel and forms a pinched spout; a ribbon handle connects the shoulder to the neck.
Wall-mounted bouquetières with an all-black base and no polychrome decoration are rarer pieces in the workshop's production.
The piece is in excellent condition, with no chips or patina flaws.
Born in 1922, Roger Capron trained at the École nationale supérieure des arts décoratifs in Paris before moving to Vallauris in 1946. Founder of the Atelier Capron in 1952, he developed a resolutely modern formal vocabulary, which won him a gold medal at the Milan Triennale. Today, his work can be found in numerous public and private collections. He died in Vallauris in 2006.
Work on view at the gallery (07240).
