Stoneware vase signed Eugène Lion, in the spirit of the Jean Carriès school. This piece features a simple ovoid shape, slightly tapered at the base and opening with a small straight neck. The glazing combines beautiful shades of brown, bluish grey, and green, with deep firing effects that give the surface a lively, mineral appearance. The simplicity of the form fully highlights the stoneware material and the natural variations in the glaze. Eugène Lion is a French ceramist associated with the Jean Carriès school. Coming from a family of potters established for several generations, he trained in the family workshop and developed a work marked by the tradition of Puisaye stoneware. His work is distinguished by a great mastery of throwing, simple forms, and an in-depth exploration of glazes, particularly with tones inspired by the Far East. A major artist, referenced in the book "Grès de Puisaye - from Jean Carriès to the present day - Marks and signatures". Dimensions: Height: 11 cm. Diameter: 6.5 cm. Perfect condition. Signed Lion.
