Description

Mid-century Zoomorphic Aztec Bird Sculpture Designed by the Belgium Artist Jules Guérin, 1950s. Rare and highly aesthetic zoomorphic ceramic vase-sculpture by Belgian ceramicist Jules Guérin, executed in salt-glazed stoneware in Bouffioulx during the 1950s. The stylized bird form reflects modernist interpretations of pre-Columbian Inca and Aztec motifs, a recurring inspiration in Guérin’s post-war work. The piece is both sculptural and functional, balancing abstraction with strong symbolic presence. Signed and model-numbered under the base (form number 3225), this work belongs to a particularly refined series produced after World War II. Preserved in excellent vintage condition. Dimensions Height 28 Width 28 Depth 16 cm
