Founded in the late 19th century, the firm specialized in finely decorated art glass, earthenware, porcelain, and table services created in collaboration with celebrated makers including Maison Haviland, Montigny-sur-Loing, Baccarat, Sèvres, and Clichy. Artists associated with Delvaux included Marcel Goupy, Clément Massier, Félix Optat-Millet, G. Neiltz, M. Zillhardt, Jean Sala, Charles Schneider, and Jean Mayodon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"494\" data-end=\"1079\"\u003eAt Delvaux, artists were granted considerable creative freedom in the design and decoration of glass and ceramic wares, many of which were painstakingly hand-painted in-house. During the 1920s, the firm maintained its own decorating workshops, where enamel designs were carefully applied by hand to glass and porcelain creations. Delvaux regularly exhibited its refined wares at important artistic venues, including the Paris Salons and the landmark Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes of 1925, the exhibition that helped define the Art Deco movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1081\" data-end=\"1340\"\u003eWhile individual artists did not always sign their work, pieces decorated for Delvaux frequently bear the mark “Delvaux, 18 Rue Royale, Paris,” a designation that remains closely associated with the firm’s reputation for elegance, artistry, and craftsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"P.O.S.H.","offers":[{"title":"A - Dessert Plates Set of 4","offer_id":43305262678129,"sku":"733634","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"B - Bread Plates Set of 4","offer_id":43305262710897,"sku":"439377","price":195.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"C - Shallow Bowls Set of 4","offer_id":43305262743665,"sku":"788813","price":175.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0165\/2136\/files\/AntiqueFrenchChina-1.jpg?v=1780170649","url":"https:\/\/poshchicago.com\/products\/antique-french-china","provider":"P.O.S.H.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
