Guérin - Roger Guérin - Vaas - Steengoed - Grote vaas

This exquisite stoneware vase, made and signed by Roger Guérin, showcases the mastery of Belgian ceramic craftsmanship. The piece features a rich cobalt blue glaze that serves as the backdrop for intricate designs. On the front, figures in traditional attire are depicted with delicate precision, embodying a narrative or folkloric theme. The use of a dripping glaze technique creates organic, textured effects that enhance the depth and dynamism of the piece. The reverse side is adorned with an elegant floral motif, rendered in subtle tones that complement the bold blue surface. The textured base and neck showcase fine details, adding to the overall sophistication of the piece. The inclusion of a handle adds both aesthetic balance and functional charm, reflecting Guérin’s fusion of artistry and utility. The vase has all the original stickers. This vase exemplifies Guérin’s hallmark style: high-temperature stoneware with dramatic glazes and an emphasis on local tradition. It stands as a timeless representation of Belgian ceramic artistry, appreciated by collectors and art enthusiasts alike. Roger Guérin (1896–1954) was a distinguished Belgian ceramist renowned for his exceptional stoneware creations. Born in the village of Bouffioulx near Charleroi, Guérin was deeply influenced by the rich pottery traditions of his region. In 1918, he established his own workshop, marking the beginning of a prolific career that left an indelible mark on Belgian ceramics. Guérin’s work is celebrated for its distinctive use of dripping glazes, a technique that added dynamic and organic patterns to his pieces. He often employed high-temperature firings, exceeding 1250 degrees Celsius, to produce durable stoneware, a practice rooted in the local ceramic traditions dating back to the late Middle Ages. Throughout his career, Guérin collaborated with notable artists, including Cris Achterberg, Marcel Wolfers, Pierre Caille, Damien Ingels, and Chris Lebeau. These collaborations enriched his creative output and contributed to the evolution of ceramic art in Belgium. His participation in international exhibitions, such as the Paris Expos of 1925 and 1937, garnered him widespread acclaim and solidified his reputation as a leading figure in the ceramic arts. After his passing in 1954, Guérin’s legacy was carried forward by his son, Jules Guérin, who took over the workshop around 1945. Jules continued the family tradition, maintaining the high standards set by his father and further contributing to the prominence of Bouffioulx as a center for ceramic artistry. Today, Roger Guérin’s works are highly sought after by collectors and art enthusiasts, with his pieces fetching significant prices at auctions. His creations are not only valued for their aesthetic appeal but also for their embodiment of the rich cultural heritage of Belgian ceramics. Bouffioulx remains a testament to the enduring legacy of the Guérin family and their contributions to the world of ceramics. Has chipped glazing (shown on pictures) but seems like it happened during the creation process, because it smoothed out. Will be well packed and protected
