Joseph-Théodore Deck (1823-1891) was a pioneer of artistic earthenware in the 19th century.
When Commodore Matthew Perry opened Japan to Western trade in 1853, interest in Japanese aesthetics grew; Théodore Deck's ceramics were among the most fashionable in Franco-Japanese, and Asian, tastes from the 1860s to the 1880s. He became famous for his magnificent turquoise glaze, visible on the interior of this vase, the famous "Deck Blue."
The shape of this vase, typically inspired by a Chinese water jug, and the decoration characterize the influence and enthusiasm for archaic Chinese taste and Japanese aesthetics, known as "Japonisme," which reached its peak at the 1889 Universal Exhibition in Paris.
