Iridescent Art Nouveau Wall Tile "Birch Forest" by Alexandre Marius for BACS
About the Item
This piece was executed by Maurice Alexandre.
BACS - EDON ROC, CAP D’ANTIBES, FRANCE (1912-1927) BACS workshop was formed by four colleagues employed by Clement Massier: Jean Barol, a glaze specialist; Maurice (Mauris) Alexandre, a painter; Jean Carle, a decorator; and Francois Sicard, a potter. Using the first letter of their last names to create an acronym, atelier BACS opened in 1912. The ceramists were financed by George Massa, a Parisian architect, on whose property, Eden-Roc in Cap d’Antibes, their workshop was located. Past experience at Massier’s studio shows in BACS’ own metallic lusterware. Beginning in 1920 until the workshop ceased in 1927, many of BACS ceramics are distinguished by their signature technique of applying high-fired enamel cloisonne which lends contrast through opacity to enhance their metallic and iridescent lusterware.

- Art Nouveau Copper Charger with Bird and Berries by Ludwig Karl Maria VierthalerBy Ludwig Karl Maria VierthalerLocated in Chicago, USRecognized for his technically superior and beautiful metal patinations for tableware, Munich born Ludwig Vierthaler’s designs and metalwork caught the attention of Tiffany & Co., NY, for whom he worked in the mid-1890s. 1906 proved to be a decisive year in his career. Though Vierthaler had left his position as the Director of Design at J. Winhart & Co. earlier that year, examples of his work for Winhart were shown along with collaborative work with Eugen Ehrenbock at the Bayerishe Jubilaums-Landers-Ausstellung in Nuremburg - for which he received a gold medal - and at the Deutsche Kunstgewerbe-Ausstellung in Dresden -for which he received a silver medal. He and Ehrenbock formalized their partnership in 1907. Vierthaler later expanded his metalwork output to include jewelry and lighting design as well as figural and ornamental building decoration design. A member of the Deutscher Werkbund...Category
