Art Deco French art pottery covered urns, attributed to Paul Milet of Sevres, circa 1920-30. Decorated in Blue Flambe, mottled blues and greens and mounted with ormolu fittings and base. The company was founded by Felix Optat Milet circa 1879, eventually taken over by his son, Paul Milet (1870-1950) who had also worked in Sevres and had an exhibition room at 25 rue de Paradis in Paris. The business continued with Paul’s son Henri at the healm, circa 1931. 10 1/4” (26cm) high, 3 3/8” (8.6cm) diameter, $1895 for the pair. At the 1900 Universal Exhibition (1900 Paris Exhibition) he obtained a gold medal for his earthenware “of pleasant shapes, decorated by the most diverse processes, cloisonné enamels, enamels on gold spangles. In all these decorations, made from good drawings, Paul Milet discerningly uses the rich palette of enamels that he masters.” Review of the Society of Friends of the National Ceramic Museum
