Kendall House Antiques Ltd. has dated this Turquoise Glazed Ceramic Jardiniere to the 1900s.
In 1883, Massier moved his operations to Golfe-Juan where he began developing his own luster glaze. His factory-gallery complex became a destination for the elite who summered in Monaco, Nice, and Cannes.
Lucien Le´vy-Dhurmer was hired on as Massier’s primary artistic director in 1887, the same year Massier produced his iridescent, metallic glaze for which he was awarded a gold medal at the Paris Exposition Universelle in 1900. That same year Massier also became an of official supplier to the British crown.
Condition: Overall in good sound condition, with factory fired crazing to the glaze, some localised chips, knocks and old repairs. Pretty much what you would expect from an item of this age.
