About Maison Charles: In 1908, Ernest Charles took over the bronzier, Maison Ullmann. Charles' company specialised in the reproduction of old light fixtures, thus building a reputation within the profession of artistic bronzier. His two sons, Emile and Pierre, took over the running of the company when they combined forces in the 1930 changing the firm's name to Charles Frères. Emile-Albert Charles and his two sons, Jean and Jacques, created the "Charles Style" combining classicism and rigour with an appreciation of contemporary trends to form a new approach in the field of lighting and decoration. In 1971 Chrystiane Charles, Jean's wife and a golde medal-winning sculptor from the Beaux Arts school in Paris, then took over the Artistic Direction of Maison Charles and created the Collection that bears her name. Carrying the torch for the family, she created a collection of signed and numbered lamp-sculptures, with a contemporary expression and inspired by nature: Amaryllis, Alizea, Orchid and Tulips. Maison Charles continues creating inventive lighting to today.

French Vintage Ceramic Table Lamp by Roger Capron, 'circa 1950s'
By Roger Capron
Located in London, GB
French decorative ceramic lamp with hand-painted horse by Roger Capron (circa 1950s). This is Capron's 'Coupe n°2 lamp' which is signed in the interior of the vertical base. A rare piece indeed, hand-painted with a stylised horse in his inimitable style. The ceramic is in fair overall condition showing some fading and marks commensurate with age and usage. This is an exceptional piece for admirers of the works of master ceramicist, Roger Capron. Signed: 'Capron Vallauris'. Lampshade shown in photos is 30 cm (11.8") in diameter and will be included when requested. Currently wired for usage in the UK but you can have it adapted to your location. Please enjoy the many photos accompanying the listing. Upon request a video can be provided.
About the Artist: The mid-century ceramic art of Roger Capron (1922-2006) embodied the vibrant spirit and verve of Vallauris and the French Côte d'Azur. He took over an abandoned pottery studio at the age of 24 in Vallauris, where he worked with Robert Picault and then Jean Derval. Capron’s ceramic workshop, known as "l'Atelier Callis", contributed to the renaissance of ceramics in Vallauris and at its peak employed over 120 ceramicists. He eventually expanded his production of vases, pitchers and other functional wares to include coffee tables with hand glazed tiles, lamp bases, wall plaques and other interior decor objects along with sculptural statues...
