Trained as a chemist at the Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres, Paul Milet operated his own celebrated ceramics studio in Sèvres, France, becoming famous during the Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods for his vibrant, rich monochrome glazes. This classic bulbous-form vessel features a luminous, glossy turquoise blue-green glaze paired with a finely cast, beaded bronze mount.
