Paul Jacquet Art deco vase

Good morning. Ceramist jacques jacquet's vase of a good size (36 cm) Typical of the ceramist's production from this period, 20-30. In perfect condition. The blue and grey tones are brilliant, they are typical of the decorations of savoyard pottery productions, but adding the art deco geometrization. The form is timeless and is similar to the african art that is all the rage at that time no sparkle to report. Below is a non-exhaustive biography that will allow you to see its influence on the decorative arts of the 1930s. Paul jacquet was born on june 23, 1883. Passionate about ceramics, but being a civil servant, he could not trade it on a large scale, so he created a workshop around 1913. He will carry out the two activities together for the rest of his life. He began to make ceramics in the savoy tradition but harmonizing the form with his drawings and colors. Becoming a member of the society of fine arts of savoy and then of the society of decorative artists, he was called upon to exhibit extensively. He collaborated with the primavera workshops between 1920 and 1925. At the same time, two other parisian decorators called on rené herbst (1891-1982) and francis jourdain (1876-1958). At the 1925 exhibition of decorative arts in paris, the ceramicist offered simple pieces, with a white background, punctuated by geometric or floral designs stylized well in the modernist spirit of the time, he was also awarded the gold medal. It is the consecration that leads to numerous commissions and prestigious visits to his workshop such as the governor of mauritius, the vuitton family etc. Ready to ask.
