Ferdinand Levillain Serveware, Ceramics, Silver and Glass
French, 1837-1905
Ferdinand Levillain had his debut at the Paris Salon in 1861 and won recognition through the 1860s and 1870s for his work with the highly respected Barbedienne. In 1878, he ceased his collaboration with Barbedienne and triumphed alone at the Exposition Universelle, where he won the gold medal for his work referencing Antiquity. In 1884, Levillain was awarded a first-class medal at the Salon and in 1889, a silver medal at the Exposition Universelle. In 1892, he was recognized with the highly prestigious Légion d'Honneur. Examples of his work are displayed in many museums, including the Musée de Lyon and the Musée d'Art Moderne in Paris. Levillain also collaborated with the Sèvres manufactory and won several medals, which are still visible today at the Louvre Museum and the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Angers.
