In 2011, Sèvres Cité de la Céramique commissioned François Dumas to create vases in new shapes for the Sèvres permanent collection. Dumas created four pieces characterized by a great simplicity and sinuous lines, resembling stacks of molds. These vases, also available in Bleu de Sèvres, were exhibited for the first time at the Villa Noailles in 2011.
Double Vase: $900
Quadruple Vase: $1,100
Sextuple Vase: $1,400
