About the Item
This ceramic vase, in the style of Jean Besnard, showcases an elegant hourglass silhouette with a textured, hand-incised surface. The deep matte black glaze is punctuated by a rhythmic pattern of small, elongated indentations revealing the natural clay beneath, creating a striking contrast. The flared rim, subtly glazed with a glossy finish, enhances its sculptural presence. The design is evocative of Besnard’s innovative approach, where texture and form harmonize to produce tactile, visually engaging pieces. This vase embodies the essence of French Art Deco ceramics, blending organic inspiration with modernist influences. Its sophisticated craftsmanship and refined aesthetic make it a collectible piece, ideal for admirers of mid-century French ceramics and avant-garde pottery.
Jean Besnard (1889–1958) was a pioneering French ceramist known for his inventive textures and modernist forms. His unique glazing techniques and Art Deco influences shaped 20th-century ceramic artistry.
