A French Art Deco vase from Fourmaintraux Delassus in Desvres, Northern France, dating to the early 1930s. The substantial art pottery vase features a dynamic metallic luster glaze in shades of rich maroon red accented with fiery iridescence, hints of copper, and crystalline clusters overall, some featuring hints of blue-violet.
Good condition with a few scattered scuffs/shallow scratches and a fine, shallow hairline on the foot rim. Fully marked underfoot with an impressed circular FD / DESVRES / FRANCE mark in addition to a hand-written number 5. The vessel measures 7.25 in. height x 7.25 in. diameter (at widest).
The Fourmaintraux Potteries represent a multi-generational family dynasty of earthenware and sandstone art pottery producers working in Desvres, France. As family members began their individual enterprises, company names were often hyphenated to distinguish one workshop/studio from another. Desvres was noted for high quality faience and Fourmaintraux pottieries received recognition and awards from the 1889 and 1900 Universal Exhibitions in Paris and in Chicago in 1893. Fourmaintraux-Delassus was awarded the Grand Prix at l’Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs In 1925
