Auguste delaherche (1857-1940) Auguste delaherche began the practice of sandstone in a new way by renouncing the decorations engraved in the earth such as those of ernest chaplet (1839-1909), from which he had bought in 1887 the parisian workshop of rue blomet. Essentially concerned with the relationship between form, colour and material, delaherche favours simple and robust shapes inspired by oriental, greek or rustic pottery. The allusion to nature - foliage and flowers engraved in reserve or evocative profiles of a plant element still in the state of a button - disappears very quickly from his work. Delaherche's great success is to have left only a role very obliterated by the chance of fire and to have been able to control his covers by directing them in their flows and forcing them, despite their wandering appearance, to produce precisely the effects he desired. In 1894, the artist left paris, where his works continued to be sold by several custodians, to settle permanently in the heart of the old country of the beauvais potters, in armentières. Ten years later a new stage will be taken: the ceramicist no longer uses practitioners, he does not do without the turners to whom he used to hand out drawings, now the work, be it sandstone or porcelain, born under his own fingers, according to his inspiration.
