About the Item
Beautiful French Art Deco glazed ceramic vase with gilded bronze mount bearing the mark of potter Gustave de Bruyn in Fives-Lille. Antoine Gustave De Bruyn, called Gustave, (Dec. 9, 1838 in Leuven, Belgium-Aug. 11, 1916 in Lille, France) was the founder of the famous Faïencerie de Fives, an industrial suburb of Lille. He began by building his own factory for the production of clay pipes and whistles. Soon the business expanded to include earthenware and stoneware for everyday use. Art pottery and new successful majolica were incorporated into the company's catalog in 1887. Soon majolica became the material of choice for the production of humidors, jardinières, vases and umbrella stands. The company's silver medal at the 1889 Paris World's Fair was a testament to its success. Soon the company employed more than 300 local people in the production of majolica, sanitary ware, and art pottery. The company's large European export trade in majolica and art pottery attracted the attention of designers all over France. Among those who collaborated with ceramics were Louis Majorelle, the designer of extraordinary art nouveau furniture, and René Lalique, famous for his distinctive jewelry and glassware. It took the onset of World War I and a devastating fire in 1917 to crush the company's success. In the mid-1920s the company returned to production. It enjoyed prosperity with Art Deco ceramics and ceramic clocks until the early 1930s, when economic and political factors in Europe closed the factory. Closed for the duration of World War II, the pottery factory reopened after the war. It was sold in 1950 and resumed limited production until 1962, when the company was dissolved.
A glance at the company catalog testifies to its success in majolica. The design of their whimsical animal jugs and Art Nouveau floral-themed ceramics remain their most popular works among collectors. They also made limited palissy-style ceramics for collectors of that genre.
Perfect condition, free of restorations or breaks. Gilding of the original bronze. DB mark inside an 'anchor , serial number present.
