ROGER CAPRON VALAURIS COFFEE TABLE FOUGERE MODEL WOOD SUPPORT L1260Here is one of Roger Capron's famous tables, the so-called "Fougère" model. There is a color composition that is not austere. The composition of the wood is interesting. Roger Capron, born in 1922 and died in 2006, is a French ceramist. On February 6, 1946, he moved to Vallauris, where he created a ceramics workshop. In 1952, Capron bought a disused pottery in Vallauris. From 1955, he began the production of earthenware tiles and tables. His creations are recognized and rewarded: gold medal at the X Triennale in Milan in 1954, silver medal at the international exhibition in Cannes in 1955, gold medal in Brussels in 1959. From 1962 begins a collaboration between Capron and Jean-Michel Carré. They exhibited side by side at Bâtimat in 1963. Capron received the international grand prize for ceramics in 1970. Around 1990, Roger Capron tackled a totally new work with unique pieces, close to sculpture. In the 2000s, Capron devoted himself to sculpture in the round, always in collaboration with his wife and with Jean-Paul Bonnet. He exhibited in the Brocéliande and Neotu galleries in Paris, Hammer and Guéridon in New York, Züblin-Haus in Stuttgart, Schachen and Horizon in Switzerland, etc. We report rubbing and scratches on the wood of the legs and the edge, micro-scratches on the ceramic with a lack on a decoration, despite these small defects this coffee table remains presentable.
