Ceramic Star Bowl by Elchinger, 1950s

About This Piece

Vintage Design

Available in several colors and formats, Fernand Elchinger's “Star of the Sea” are magnificent examples of fifties ceramics. Textured, worked in the thickness, we appreciate their organic forms and their surprising enamels. This charming stuck-up is a small format, enamelled with a celadon, textured and nuanced green. Very decorative, this Midcentry cup has not aged.

Green ceramics are in good condition. The part carries a handwritten signature in hollow.

17cm in diameter, 6cm high.

"Ceramics Elchinger" is a family business installed in Soufflenheim in Alsace in 1834. Since that time, generations have followed one another and have been offering production as varied as before-garde. Léon Elchinger (1871-1942) will mark the spirits by artistic sandstone productions as well as magnificent Art Nouveau potteries then Art Deco, with magnificent colors and brilliance. Less known than the Chambost, Ruelland, Jouve and Capron, Fernand Elchinger (1911-1975) will be one of the major mid-century ceramists. We are a fan of his productions free forms, "handkerchief" vases and especially the contrast games between deep blacks and bright yellows, red or green!
