As they sing (vigorously) in Les Miserables, "One Day More!!!" Tomorrow the French celebrate La Fête National (Bastille Day).
The covered ceramic urn, shown above, is a celebration of French Art Nouveau style. Botanically-inspired, randomly organic, and hand-crafted beyond reproach—this piece, made by Denbac around 1910, is the poster child for handsome Art Nouveau aesthetics.
In its day, it might have been created to hold tobacco. But it could be used for many other things. A place to keep spare house keys. A jar to keep paperclips on the desk. Or even a fitting place to keep the remains of a beloved (small) pet. Click on the photo above to learn more about this handsome piece.
One Day More!!!
