About the Item

This small vase by Jean Gerbino, created in the 1930s, is a stunning example of his innovative mosaic technique. Its rounded shape features intricate patterns crafted from colored clay inlays, forming a harmonious blend of earth tones, greens, and whites. The precise craftsmanship showcases Gerbino’s signature style, inspired by traditional Mediterranean ceramics and modernist design principles. The vase’s decoration includes floral and geometric motifs, demonstrating both technical mastery and artistic creativity. Jean Gerbino (1876–1966) was an Italian-born ceramicist who settled in Vallauris, France. Renowned for his pioneering mosaic technique, he meticulously assembled patterns using colored clay pieces rather than painted surfaces. His work represents a unique fusion of cultural heritage and modern artistry, earning him recognition as a key figure in 20th-century ceramics. This vase exemplifies his timeless contribution to ceramic art. Perfect condition. More information Upon Request.
