The jardiniere was part of … more A brilliant turquoise Art Deco pottery jardinière made by the French faiencerie Longwy circa 1920.

The jardiniere was part of a special line for the Atelier Primavera, the in-house design studio in the Paris department store Au Printemps.⁠ The atelier, created in 1912, aimed to provide affordable modern French design to middle-class consumers. It was the first time a Parisian magasin developed its own line of products. Primavera contracted production to craftsmen, designers, and manufactories, hence Longwy’s association with the studio. Primavera flourished in the Art Deco period, and Longwy’s Art Deco ceramics like this jardiniere certainly fit well within that environment.
