"Jean Mayodon was appointed from 1934 to 1939, artistic adviser to the Manufacture de Sèvres, then artistic director in 1941-1942. During this period, he creates for the Manufacture more than eighty forms of vases.
Although he abandoned earthenware, his favorite material, for porcelain, he remained faithful to his main source of inspiration in his designs: a strong and joyful Antiquity evoked by rounds of tritons and mermaids, dancers, heroes and gods.
Mayodon's personal production also includes large-scale works: fountains, sculptures, decorative panels...destined for private homes, official buildings or large ocean liners. His works are currently enjoying a well-deserved popularity as he is one of the greatest ceramists of his time. (sèvres ceramique)
Jean Mayodon is one of the greatest masters of ceramics.
