Inscribed to underside ‘Made in France Piece Unique’ with incised artist's cipher.

print

A certain transcendent unity, as if made to measure, issued from this prodigious blossoming of forms, some ordinary, others decorative, some monumental, others mannered, be they one-off pieces or produced in certain numbers. This quality, to which few artists ever remain faithful, shows through in each one of Jouve's works.
