Ceramic Vases By Jean Teulières
Jean Teulière was a master craftsman and teacher; his work was understated and precise, and he produced a diverse body of high-quality pieces; often collaborating with modernist architects in southwestern France.

Jean Teulière (1919–2009) studied from 1936 to 1939 at the Beaux-Arts in Toulouse and then at the École des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. He was particularly interested in ceramics, and beginning in 1948, he presented original pieces at the SAM, executed with perfect technique. That same year, he joined the newly formed group “Le Chariot.” The sculptor Pagès, the painters Goedgebuer, Hugon, Schmidt, and Vernette—all members of the SAM—along with the Parisian Yankel (who had taken refuge in Toulouse during the last war), gathered for about a decade in a spirit of friendly competition. He exhibited at the Galerie Chappe, then at Simone Boudet’s gallery.
While teaching modeling and ceramics at the city’s School of Fine Arts from 1951 to 1989, he pursued a career as a decorator, always in search of new forms and new glazes. For over thirty years, the majority of his work centered on pieces commissioned for private or public buildings, as well as historic or religious monuments (theChapel of Saint-Antonin at the Jacobins). There are over a hundred of his works in the Southwest, the most iconic being the twenty-six coats of arms at Matabiau Station.
