About the Item

Impressive tall vase in green ceramic. This vase, crafted by Jean Gerbino in Vallauris during the 1950s, exemplifies his innovative terre-mêlée technique. Its intricate patterns, formed by blending clays of varying green hues, create a mesmerizing marbled effect, showcasing Gerbino’s mastery in combining art and chemistry. The vase’s elegant form highlights the interplay between fluidity and structure, embodying mid-century modern aesthetics. Subtle variations in the greens evoke natural textures, from lush foliage to moss-covered stone, lending a timeless and organic appeal. Jean Gerbino (1876–1966), a Sicilian-born ceramicist, established his studio in Vallauris, France, in 1930. His pioneering techniques, especially terre-mêlée, revolutionized decorative ceramics. There is a crack on the neck. See pictures. More information Upon Request.
