About the Item

Ceramic table lamp made by the french artist Marius Bessone. Topped with a modern shade MARIUS BESSONE - Born in 1929 Marius Bessone was a renowned French ceramist who spent most of his life in the town of Vallauris, located in the south of France, which is known for its rich history and tradition in ceramics. Bessone's work in ceramics was characterized by his bold and innovative approach to the medium, which incorporated a unique combination of brutalist design and crystallized enamels. Bessone's artistic output included a diverse range of utilitarian objects, including lamps, vases, trays, and sculptures. In 1954, Marius and his wife Huguette opened their own workshop in Vallauris, where they began to experiment with different processes such as crystallization, reliefs on brown tone, and volcanic effects. Over the years, Bessone became a fixture in the local ceramics scene, participating in almost all the biennials of Vallauris, as well as prestigious exhibitions throughout France and Europe.

Imposing Ceramic Table Lamp by Robert Perot
By Robert Perot
Located in Saint-Ouen, IDF
Impressive and tall ceramic table lamp made by Robert Perot, stamped on the back with his manufacture name "VIEUX MOULIN VALLAURIS". In his early years Robert Perot worked on the restauration of the Reims cathedral, this influence is clear when we see how the main decor of this lamp reminds us of the stained glass frame we can find on such monuments. ROBERT PÉROT (1931-2003) Robert Pérot is a ceramist and a sculptor from the golden age of ceramics in Vallauris who pursued his studies at the School of fine Arts in Reims from 1946 to 1949, specializing in sculpture. During this period, he encountered influential figures such as Jean-Claude Malarmey and Dominique Baudart.
