Description

A highly collectible and authentic Camille Fauré Limoges enamel vase, dating from the height of the French Art Deco period circa 1930. This exceptional piece showcases Fauré's mastery of the difficult enameling process, known for his innovative technique of applying thick, raised enamels to create a stunning three-dimensional, sculptural effect.

The vase features a distinctive spherical or "boule" form with a short, tapered neck. It is beautifully decorated with abstract, stylized floral or geometric motifs, rendered in vibrant, hand-applied enamel glazes in shades of orange, yellow, red, and accented with black detailing. This bold aesthetic captures the essence of the modernist Art Deco movement.

The piece is signed in gold enamel on the side/base edge with "C. Fauré Limoges, France," confirming its authenticity and origin from his renowned workshop. A similar design is photographed in the authoritative book "Limoges Art Deco Enamels, the Geometry of Joy" by Albert Shayo.
