About the Item

A lively and vivid example of high style Art Deco design, this lidded urn features a smiling satyr, his face and cap laced with leaves and flowers in a primary palette of blue, red and yellow. It is rare to find this piece with its lid intact, and ornamented with this polychromatic design, all designed by Madeleine Sougez. She designed this piece for the famed Primavera ceramic workshop in the 1930s, established by the beloved Le Printemps department store in Paris. A number of famous artists were employed there, including René Buthaud. Another example of this urn is held by the famed Hearst Castle in California. It is well marked on the bottom.
