About the Item
Richly glazed in tones of ruddy brown, ivory and dark chocolate, this stunning vase by Jean Mayodon features a series of medallions with classical nude male figures in various poses. One figure is shown running with arms raised, others are shown in recumbent positions, and the fourth is shown going to battle with sword and shield. Mayodon was one of France's great practitioners of what we now call Art Deco during its heyday in the 1920s and 1930s, and he favoured sculptures and vessels executed in ceramic or porcelain. His male figures tend to have wide shoulders and imposing figures and his glazes are rich and atmospheric. The decorative design here is especially distinctive, including a checkerboard pattern on the upper and lower portions of the vase.

Richard LE CORRONE at CIBOURE Large Greek Stoneware Vase, Early 1950s
By Ciboure, Richard Le Corrone
Located in Saint-Amans-des-Cots, FR
Large stoneware vase by Richard Le Corrone at Ciboure, France, early 1950s. High technical quality rotating Greek decor. The stylized rotating scenery depicts Artemis and Apollo hunting with their dogs. Jarraila technique. Height : 11"(28cm), Diameter : 9.45"(24cm). Signed "R. Le Corrone" and stamped "RF Ciboure" under the base.
CIBOURE pottery was founded in 1919 on the Basque coast by Etienne Vilotte (1881-1957), Louis Benjamin Victor Floutier (1882-1936) and a man named LUKAS. In 1922, the date of the formal establishment of the company, Vilotte is the manager. From its inception, the style is clearly defined. A classical orientation, strongly imbued with the antique style and taking advantage of the neo-Greek wave. The characteristics of Art Deco are a source of inspiration as well as the regional style is an influence. The goal is clear: to offer high quality and decorative items whose forms are inherited from the ancient or traditional Basque containers. The sandstone reflects this enthusiasm for this growing area since the late 19th century.
In 1945, Rudolf Fischer bought the pottery on which it imposes its trademark in 1951 - RF CIBOURE - to replace the old - VE CIBOURE -. It will be replaced later by that of his son Max Fischer - MF CIBOURE -. He brings technical and artistic changes such as molding, baking more oxidizing and parts production utilities. This pottery owes its success, in addition to the decorative qualities and originality of its production, to an excellent marketing, particularly among Parisian department stores. Finally we note the names of its principal designers, the first and until 1922: Louis Floutier...
