Very special example. Marked Jerome Massier fils, Vallarius. Delphin Massier's factory in Vallauris produced primarily high-fired majolica items. His line of purely artist ceramics was destined for the home and garden. At some point during the Art Nouveau years, Delphin Massier mastered the technique for metallic luster glazing invented by his younger brother. He, too, proceeded to create wonderful iridescent objects. While not as well known for his lusterware, Delphin was very successful, and the firing of his vessels often obtained a brilliant iridescence. A second cousin, Jean Baptiste Massier, inherited Jacques Massier's factory in Vallauris; the pottery made under his supervision was signed Jerome Massier fils.".html" Massier, a French art pottery, was made by brothers Jerome, Delphin, and Clement Massier in Vallauris and Golfe-Juan, France, in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It has an iridescent metallic luster glaze that resembles the Weller Sicardo pottery glaze. Most pieces are marked J. Massier. Massier may also be listed in the Majolica category.
