Goldscheider Art Déco Figurine 'Blonde Dream', by Stephan Dakon, ca 1935
Located in Vienna, AT
Excellent art ceramic figurine from the 1930s:
Striding young lady with a cropped, delicate top and a large hat, holding up the long, wide skirt with a stylized floral pattern with both hands.
On a black oval base, artist's signature 'Dakon' on the bottom.
Based on the film 'The Blonde Dream', starring Lilian Harvey.
Lilian Harvey (1906 - 1968) was a British-German actress, singer and dancer. From 1923 she attended the ballet school of the German State Opera and received first paid appearances as a dancer in Hungary and Austria. She made a total of 12 films with Willy Fritsch, and in 1930 came the decisive breakthrough with the romantic comedy film 'Liebeswalzer'. 1931 the film 'The Congress Dances' appeared, in which she appeared in a scene 'Christels Song', better known as 'Das gibt's nur einmal' that today still exists as an Evergreen. During the Nazi era in Germany Lilian Harvey's career stopped because of her opposition to the regime and she emigrated first to southern France and then to the United States. After the war she returned to Europe and took turns living in Germany and France, where she died in 1968.

Mado JOLAIN Anthropomorphic Stoneware Vase
By Mado Jolain
Located in Saint-Amans-des-Cots, FR
Stunning anthropomorphic ceramic vase by Mado JOLAIN, France, 1950s. Stoneware vase very close to Picasso's production, in terms of colors and design. Height : 9.1"(23.2cm), Diameter : 5"(12.6cm). Signed "m.j" under the base (see photos).
Mado Jolain was born in Paris in 1921. Under the Occupation, she joined the Paris School of Decorative Arts and the drawing and sculpture workshops of La Grande Chaumière. There she met René Legrand who turned more towards painting. Sensitized by the craze for ceramics which began before the war, Mado Jolain carried out her first attempts as a potter in the kiln of a utilitarian ceramics workshop, rue d'Alesia.
In 1946, Mado Jolain and René Legrand married and moved to Montrouge where René set up his painting studio. The ceramic workshop is not far away, in the 14th arrondissement. René Legrand shoots their first plays. Popular art, very popular in the decorative arts of the post-war period, was a great source of inspiration for them. They visit the Dijon Museum and the Museum of Popular Art and Traditions where they appreciate the shapes of utilitarian pottery.
In 1948, creations from the Mado Jolain workshop were exhibited for the first time at the Salon des Ateliers d'Art Décoratifs and at L'objet 1948, a landmark exhibition after the war, organized at the Galerie Denise Breteau, rue Bonaparte , Paris.
In 1950, the Mado Jolain ceramic workshop moved to Montrouge. René Legrand devoted himself more and more to painting, Klaus Schultze...

Antique and Vintage Ceramics for Sale: Shop Figurines, Vases and Scandinavian Pottery on 1stDibs
Whether you’re adding an eye-catching mid-century modern glazed stoneware bowl to your dining table or grouping a collection of decorative plates by color for the shelving in your living room, decorating and entertaining with antique and vintage ceramics is a great way to introduce provocative pops of colors and textures to a space or family meals.
Ceramics, which includes pottery such as earthenware and stoneware, has had meaningful functional value in civilizations all over the world for thousands of years. When people began to populate permanent settlements during the Neolithic era, which saw the rapid growth of agriculture and farming, clay-based ceramics were fired in underground kilns and played a greater role as important containers for dry goods, water, art objects and more.
Today, if an Art Deco floor vase, adorned in bright polychrome glazed colors with flowers and geometric patterns, isn’t your speed, maybe minimalist ceramics can help you design a room that’s both timeless and of the moment. Mixing and matching can invite conversation and bring spirited contrasts to your outdoor dining area. The natural-world details enameled on an Art Nouveau vase might pair well with the sleek simplicity of a modern serving bowl, for example.
In your kitchen, your cabinets are likely filled with ceramic dinner plates. You’re probably serving daily meals on stoneware dishes or durable sets of porcelain or bone china, while decorative ceramic dishes may be on display in your dining room. Perhaps you’ve anchored a group of smaller pottery pieces on your mantelpiece with some taller vases and vessels, or a console table in your living room is home to an earthenware bowl with a decorative seasonal collection of leaves, greenery and acorns.
Regardless of your tastes, however, it’s possible that ceramics are already in use all over your home and outdoor space. If not, why? Whatever your needs may be, find a wide range of antique and vintage ceramics on 1stDibs.
