About this seller
Product description
Mirror designed by French ceramist François Lembo in gold and green-black enamel. Signed on the back. His mirrors have often been confused with those of Mithé Espelt.
A native of Vallauris, François Lembo began his career as a potter in 1951 in the workshops of Calva and Rossignol. After his apprenticeship and national service, he worked for three years in the studio of his father-in-law, Marc Roussel, before opening his own studio in Vallauris in 1960. Roussel's work, influenced by Byzantine art, inspired Lembo to create mirrors, often decorated in the style of Russian icons. He produced a number of religious icons decorated with small ceramic beads. Lembo sold his work to "Terre de Provence" and enjoyed considerable success in the 1960s and 1970s. He worked as a ceramist for over 23 years. He passed away in 2013.
