About the Item
Limoges enameller Mauricette Pinoteau handcrafted this stunning pendant necklace. The rectangular silver plate frame is ornate with an enamel-on-copper cameo. The Art Deco-inspired design features a geometric shape. The pendant features cobalt blue, turquoise blue, navy blue, white, and black over a silver-foil background. The handwritten signature on the underside reads "M. Pinoteau - Limoges." The piece is finished with a well-crafted chain and a spring-ring clasp.
Measurements: The necklace's total length is 23.63 in (60 cm) - The width is 2.25 in (5.7 cm) - The pendant is 1 in wide (2.5 cm) by 2.25 in high (5.7 cm).
Note: Today, Mauricette Pinoteau is regarded as the sole custodian of the expertise and history of the Camille Fauré workshop. She entered the studio in 1972 and studied enamel art until 1978.
"I was 19 years old," she says. "I did not know anything about enamel. I came from the tapestry I had studied at Aubusson Art School."
Andrée Fauré, Camille Fauré's daughter, and her husband, Louis Malabre, led the workshop. Camille Fauré died in 1956.
Along with her new teachers, the young apprentice discovers the fascinating world of enamel work. Everyone was respectful of each other's work. The young people were there to learn, the old ones to transmit. Each had a specific function according to the disciplines: geometric enamel, painted enamel, and grisaille.
The workshop had 25 people. They had no time, but their requirements were very high. If a defect was spotted, the piece was destroyed immediately, and they had to start over until they produced the perfect piece. They wanted to achieve perfection.
Mauricette plays a crucial role in passing down the knowledge of enamel art. This is a well-placed trust because today, she is the only heir to the know-how and living memory of the Faure workshop, which was liquidated in 1985.
She opened her shop in Limoges in 1991 and still works there.
