Charles Greber's firm became famous for its Art Nouveau creations at the turn of the 20th century, and continued to make modern pieces through the 1920s.
Charles Greber (1853-1935), the most famous of the Beauvais pottery dynasty, was an early adopter of Art Nouveau. When he wasn’t busy designing architectural features for facades and interiors, he produced Art Nouveau stoneware pottery pieces like this. This vase in pitcher form is Art Nouveau but can also be described as Art Deco.

This piece is offered in the manner of Charles Gréber. What follows is about the maker whose work it follows, not a statement that it left their hand.
Charles Gréber (1853–1935) was a French ceramicist of the Gréber family, which had operated a pottery workshop in Beauvais since 1846 after relocating from Austria. He took over the family factory in 1899 and shifted its focus toward architectural ceramics, developing a signature flambé, drip-glazed stoneware.
He decorated a number of French buildings, working first in an Art Nouveau idiom and, after 1920, in Art Deco style. He was made a Knight of the Legion of Honour in 1926.

Notes on this piece
- On the attribution. Words such as “style of”, “manner of”, “attributed to”, “after” or “circle of”, and period-style labels such as “Louis XV style”, describe our informed opinion based on form, construction and materials.
