Diminutive 1920s Art Deco Vase by Alfred Renoleau - 3¼"

A charming petite Art Deco vase of rounded, globular form, dating from the 1920s and signed with the monogram “AR” for Alfred Renoleau under the base. The surface is finished in a softly speckled pink glaze, providing a delicate ground for the bold, stylised floral decoration. Large black flowers with simplified, graphic forms wrap around the body, their petals highlighted with silver accents. The rim is also silvered, echoing the decorative scheme. There is gentle wear to the silvering in places, consistent with age, but no chip noted. 

Alfred Renoleau (1854–1930) was a French ceramicist associated with the Art Nouveau and later Art Deco movements, working in the Angoulême region. His workshop became known for its inventive glazes and decorative experimentation.

This petite vase would be perfect for a small arrangement on a side table or nightstand, bringing a touch of 1920s French elegance and Art Deco refinement.
