Superb 1930’s Large French Art Pottery Art Deco Arnoux Vase

Antiques : Ceramics, Porcelain : European Art Pottery

 

I am very pleased to offer this stunning Art Deco vase made by the renowned French artist T. Arnoux sometime during the 1930’s. While French Art Deco was highly geometric, this particular piece shows some residual influence from the Art Nouveau era with its graceful curvilinear motifs combined with the very Art Deco rhythm of the pattern. This is glazed in shades of green, red, and black, on a cream background and shows the bold black outlining of the pattern for which Arnoux is justly famous. This measures 10” tall and 4” in diameter at its widest point. It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, hairlines, or repairs. There is a very small glaze flake on the exterior rim and small area of glaze skip, though this occurred during manufacture. It is clearly marked T. Arnoux in handwritten yellow glaze on the base. Shipping weight: 3 lb. 2 oz. (Location: FD)
