ANDRE-FERNAND THESMAR – ALBERT DAMMOUSE – CUP, CIRCA 1897

CUP, CIRCA 1897
Gilt-cloisonné enamelled stoneware, decorated with flowers and insects
Signed and dedicated to Jeanne Dammouse
Height: 9.5 cm.

Bibliography
Paul Arthur, French Art Nouveau Ceramics: An Illustrated Dictionary, Norma Editions, 2015, ill. p. 354

At the 1900 Exposition Universelle, Thesmar presents his works in gilt-cloisonné enamelled stoneware
for the first time. We have no evidence that Thesmar designed ceramics. We know that he decorated
Sèvres porcelain with enamels ; the ceramics were provided by the Manafacture Nationale.
Because this piece is dedicated to Jeanne Dammouse, we assume it was provided
by the ceramist Albert Dammouse
According to our records, no other example is known to exist
