French Art Deco stoneware ceramic vase by Charlotte CHAUCHET-GUILLERÉ (1878-1964) at SAINTE-RADEGONDE for PRIMAVERA (Paris), France, ca.1922. Height : 23.2cm (9.1"), Diameter : 19cm (7.5"). Stamp under the base "Primavera France" (see photo). This shape was created in 1921-1922 by Charlotte Chauchet, then director and chief designer of Atelier Primavera. It was made of earthenware and stoneware. We are therefore at the very beginning of direct production by Primavera of its ceramics in Sainte-Radegonde. Charlotte Chauchet began working with stoneware shortly after the acquisition of the Sainte-Radegonde factory by Le Printemps. His works were exhibited at the Salon in Autumn 1922, then throughout 1923. This granitelike and speckled cover is particularly original and rare. This is the first time we meet it. It is remarkable and gorgeous in its classy sobriety. Charlotte Stéphanie Henriette Chauchet was born in December 1878 in Charleville (Ardennes) to Léon Prosper Chauchet, brewer, then aged 22, born in Raucourt (Ardennes) and Louise Amélie Henriette Michon, 19 years old, his wife. After studying in the Ardennes, she continued in Paris, benefiting in particular from the teachings of Benjamin Constant and Jean-Paul Laurens. She started out as a painter and her paintings were admitted to several salons, thus exhibiting at the Salon of French Artists, or even at the Exhibition of Women Painters and Sculptors. one of her paintings, "Tide", was presented at the Salon of French Artists, she received an Honorable Mention in 1901, a medal in 1902, and a Travel Grant in 1904. The French State acquired three of his works in 1901, 1904 and 1906: Kitchen Interior, Intimacy and Little Girl with an Apple. The Charleville museum also selected her and acquired four paintings for its collections. On March 17, 1906, in Paris, she married a lawyer, René Guilleré, lover of art and music, collector of traditional African art, poet, playwright, contributor to various magazines, and founding member, in 1901, of the Society of Decorative Artists (S.A.D.) of which he is general secretary. They built a residence in bricks and slates, with an unostentatious but nevertheless singular and elegant facade, at 13 rue Eugénie Gérard in Vincennes. While continuing her activity as a painter, Charlotte Chauchet-Guilleré became an active member of this society. She exhibited decorative panels at the Salon d'Automne from 1910 to 1913, and at the Salon des Indépendants from 1911 to 19133. She was asked at the same time by Hector Guimard to create a fresco in the dining room of the Mezzara hotel (1910-1911). From 1909, she was entrusted by the management of Printemps, a decorative art department in these department stores. In January 1913, still within...
