“Céramiques Elchinger” is a family business established in Soufflenheim in Alsace in 1834. Since that time, generations have succeeded one another and offered a production that is as varied as it is avant-garde. Léon Elchinger (1871-1942) left his mark with his production of artistic stoneware as well as magnificent Art Nouveau and then Art Deco pottery, with magnificent colors and luster. Less known than Chambost, Ruelland, Jouve and Capron, Fernand Elchinger (1911-1975) will be one of the great mid-century ceramists. We are a fan of his free-form productions, “handkerchief” vases and especially the play of contrast between deep blacks and bright yellows, reds or greens! This piece has an attribution mark,
