A superb example of 1950s French pottery, this vase is a true statement piece for collectors and interior design enthusiasts alike.
Founded in 1758 in the small town of Saint-Clément in northeastern France, the Saint-Clément ceramics factory is one of the oldest and most prestigious French pottery manufacturers. Originally established as a small earthenware workshop, it quickly gained a reputation for producing high-quality ceramics, including decorative pieces and utilitarian pottery. Over time, Saint-Clément became known for its fine stoneware and porcelain, with an emphasis on both functional and decorative items, from vases to tableware.
The factory reached its peak in the 19th and early 20th centuries, when it gained international recognition for its exquisite craftsmanship and innovative designs. During this period, the factory produced a wide range of ceramics, including figurines, plaques and decorative objects, often decorated with nature-inspired floral motifs and intricate glazes.
In the 1950s, influenced by modernist trends, Saint-Clément adapted its style to embrace the bold and artistic aesthetic of the mid-century design movement. The manufactory’s pieces from this period, such as large vases, tableware and sculptural works, are highly sought after by collectors today for their distinctive and sophisticated designs and exceptional quality. Known for its striking use of colour, texture and glaze, Saint-Clément remains a symbol of French ceramic art.
The Saint-Clément ceramic manufactory continued to produce pottery until the end of the 20th century, although it ceased operations in the 1990s. Today, Saint-Clément’s legacy lives on through its beautifully crafted pieces, which are still highly regarded for their historical significance and craftsmanship in the world of fine ceramics.
Notable Works
Saint-Clément pieces, particularly those from the mid-20th century, are highly sought after by collectors and represent a unique blend of traditional craftsmanship and modernist design. Many of the manufactory’s vases, sculptures, and decorative objects continue to be prized for their elegance and bold, stylized designs.
