About the Item

This is a vintage ceramic vase from the 1940s, signed under the base by Jean Gerbino. Characteristic of his signature "millefiori" mosaic technique, this vase features intricate geometric and floral motifs in shades of blue, white, and earthy tones. The top and bottom sections display a woven pattern, while the central band showcases symmetrical medallions with delicate floral details. The craftsmanship demonstrates Gerbino’s mastery in blending colored clays to create decorative effects without relying on painted glazes. The glossy finish enhances the depth of colors and textures, making it a true collector’s piece. Jean Gerbino (1876-1966) was a Sicilian-born French ceramist renowned for pioneering the mosaic technique in Vallauris. His innovative method, blending colored clay rather than painting ceramics, gave his works a unique, inlaid aesthetic. Perfect condition. More information Upon Request.
