Barbotine is a typically French name, in other countries it is called majolica - it is a paste made of sand, clay and marl which is poured into a mould and then covered with varnish.
These colourful objects, which were very popular between 1890 and 1940, were essentially vases, piggy banks, flowerpots and jugs used on a daily basis, first in the North and East of France and in Belgium, then almost everywhere, including the United States, where they are now very much in demand.
Maryse Bottero in her book: " Pichets en barbotine - Personnages, animaux, fleurs "
Éditions Massin, shows us the extraordinary diversity of production in French earthenware factories, from the middle of the 19th century until the 1940s, and also highlights small, almost unknown factories which have as much merit as the "big ones", in the quality, creativity and distribution of their product.

- Sculpture the Tiger and the Bulldog, Aaron Hinojosa, 20th CenturyLocated in CRÉTEIL, FRMagnificent sculpture named "the tiger with the bulldog" is a unique piece. Mixed technique, particularity of its creator, mastering the recycling of all materials at hand, always with an ecological concern, conveying messages on what he lived or wanted to denounce in his time. Period: 20th century Dimensions: Height: 39cm x width: 25cm x depth: 16cm. 24 carat leaf gilding This feline is not chosen by chance, the tiger is a strong symbol of vitality, unpredictability, strength but also of self-confidence. It also strongly symbolizes ambition and justice. On his head, like a cap, the face of the man with his eyes raised to the sky. On his back, like a backpack, the bulldog's head. The bulldog, with its massive, muscular, stocky body as well as a powerful jaw evokes strength. His strength, his tenacity, his willingness to fight stronger animals. This sculpture certainly found its inspiration in England, or Aaron Hinojosa, the first country where he stayed after leaving Mexico. Victorian...Category
