Roger Capron Tables

French, 1922-2006

Roger Capron is best known for his geometrically complex, vibrantly colored tile-topped coffee tables. These mid-century furnishings, with their comely palettes and playful arrangements of abstract forms or natural-world motifs, are approachable yet sophisticated. They draw on Scandinavian modernism and exemplify the Parisian ceramist’s belief in ensuring that things of beauty are easily and widely accessible, a principle espoused by French decorative artist and designer René Gabriel.

Capron graduated in 1943 from the School of Applied Arts in Paris. In a small atelier he later founded with Robert Picault and Jean Derval in Vallauris, Capron made alluring sculptures, table lamps and other objects and found inspiration in the work of Pablo Picasso, who had also opened an atelier in the region. He parted ways with his fellow ceramists in 1952 in order to open his own manufactory, Atelier Capron.

Initially staffed by a handful of workers, Atelier Capron captured international attention. His pieces were sold in stores such as Saks Fifth Avenue and Gimbels. Later, Capron’s wife, Jacotte, studied art and became a valued collaborator. Owing in part to her expertise in mixing pigments and glazes, Capron’s best-known ceramics feature dazzling colors and whimsical characters. Like Picasso, he experimented with many artistic styles and never settled on one technique for too long. His coffee tables, side tables and decorative objects are among the most enduring and coveted designs of the mid-century modern era.

While Capron’s factory had grown tenfold by 1980, it shut down a few years later after a slew of competitors began mass-producing cheaper imitations.

Capron won an award at the Milan Triennial in 1954 and International Grand Prize for Ceramics in 1970. His works have been displayed in the Musée National de la Céramique and the Musée Magnelli.

Roger Capron - Stunning Ceramic Coffee Table with Lava Tiles, Metal Frame, 1970s
By Roger Capron
Located in Stratford, CT
Looking for a spectacular ceramic coffee table! Look no further. Ceramic top with pleasing modulations and contrasts between colors (Off-white, gray, amber and gold), textures (smooth, rough), linings (texture lines, designed lines and grout lines), geometric patterns (within and between tiles) and tile sizes. The very best in ceramic coffee tables Roger Capron had to offer. Ceramic tiles are all made of lava, lighter in weight, supporting all these variations mentioned above. Moreover, each tile was shaped and flattened by hand, which was a first for Mr Capron's work. Mr Capron built up his company from 1 to 120 employees from 1946 to 1982. Here is a quick summary of his prolific production: - Free forms decorative items with handglazed decors and drawings (from 1948) - Navet tiles hand glazed on industrial tiles from Villeroy and Boch (From 1950 to 1958) - Planet tiles hand glazed on industrial tiles from Villeroy and Boch (From 1959 to 1975) - Hand shaped ceramics (mostly humidors and lamps) covering the 19070's - Indoors and outdoors wall panels covering buildings and lobbies. Most famous ones are 5 stars Hotel Byblos in Saint Tropez (with Jean Derval), Gare maritime de Cannes, - Lava tiles in hundreds of colors and textures (1970 to 1984) - This coffe table comes this production. - Garrigue and Herbiers tiles (1970 to 1984) - Unique whimsical sculptures, including gigantic sculptures...
