AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A rare and highly decorative, extremely striking French Art Deco Majolica set from the Faïencerie d’Orchies, created around 1930. The ensemble consists of two matching vases and a matching jardinière, representing a characteristic example of the high-quality French faience production of the interwar period.

The design consistently follows the principles of Art Déco: strictly structured architectural forms with stepped finishes, combined with a finely tuned decoration of black geometric elements and stylized floral motifs on a light, cream-colored background. The vertical emphasis and balanced proportions give the set a clear, modern presence with a strong graphic expression.

Orchies is among the most important French manufacturers of this era and is known for its high-quality majolica as well as for designs that combine elegance and decorative power. The present ensemble convincingly represents this tradition and, as a complete set, creates a particularly harmonious effect.

Ideal for a representative presentation on a sideboard, console, or mantelpiece, and equally attractive for collectors of French Art Deco ceramics as for enthusiasts of classic modernism.

The vases have no chips or cracks.

The goods are wrapped in padding foil and enclosed in bio-styrofoam within a double-walled carton for shipment via DHL.
