Pair of French Art Déco Painted Ceramic Bookends Shaped Like Scotch Terrier Dogs

About the Item

Pair of french Art Déco painted ceramic bookends shaped like Scotch Terrier dogs By: unknown Material: ceramic, enamel, paint Technique: cast, pressed, painted, hand-painted, hand-crafted, enameled, glazed Dimensions: 3.5 in x 6.5 in x 7.5 in Date: early 20th century Style: Art Déco Place of origin: France Rooted in the French Art Déco tradition, this pair of ceramic bookends captures the essence of early 20th-century craftsmanship. Representing the iconic Scotch Terrier, the figures are rendered in ceramic painted with meticulous attention to detail, while the bases are finished with a delicate craquelure glaze. This technique creates a network of fine cracks on the surface, enhancing the piece's visual texture. The dogs’ dynamic posture, combined with the contrasting light-toned bases, highlights the harmony between aesthetic and utility, a hallmark of Art Déco design. The subtle interplay of glossy enamel and textured glaze underscores the artisanal techniques employed in their creation. Each figure exudes character, balancing elegance with playful charm, making them functional and a statement of refined taste.
