Glazed Stoneware Zoomorphic Pitcher by Cécile Dein, circa 1960, Signed

About the Item

Glazed stoneware zoomorphic pitcher by Cécile Dein, circa 1960. Signed. Stoneware pitcher in the shape of an owl glazed in brown and dark green tones. In the style of la Borne pottery. Signed on the bottom. The piece is in very good condition. Born in 1929, Cécile Dein devoted herself very early on to the shaping of clay and worked in the potter's tradition by producing everyday objects. Her meeting with Colette Gueden was decisive: the first sales in the Printemps department stores in Paris followed. Cécile creates tableware for Primavera. She exhibited in several galleries and joined forces with the ceramists Mohy and Taburet to present her work. She produces crackled ceramics which she glazes herself. ?With her husband, the painter Paul Dein (1918-1986), they settled in Brittany in 1960, then in the Perche region. She met artists like Hundertwasser. Her ceramics are then mounted in chamotte stoneware, sometimes with zoomorphic forms.

Black Glazed Ceramic Pitcher with Green Glints by Jean Girel, French Ceramist
By Jean Girel
Located in Camblanes et Meynac, FR
Black glazed ceramic pitcher with green glints by Jean Girel, French ceramist This is a very beautiful ceramic pitcher. The shape of the jug and the handle remind us of the shapes of popular pottery works, while the very refined work of the enamel shows the great mastery of the ceramist Jean Girel. The glaze is a deep black illuminated by green glints. It is an object which is at the same time rough and elegant, it emanates strength and softness. Very sober, it can be integrated in any type of interior, particularly of wabi-sabi inspiration. The signature "Jean Girel" is below the base. Jean Girel is one of the most famous french ceramist art masters of the 21st Century. Inspired by the chinese Song ceramics...
