Pierre Casenove alt
Born in 1943 in Céret, at the foot of the Pyrenees, Pierre Casenove is one of the leading figures in French ceramics. Trained at the École des Beaux-Arts, he specialized in ceramics at a young age and built his first kiln at twenty. Now based in the Jura region, he has been developing a unique body of work for over forty years, a blend of art, design, and exceptional craftsmanship.
A renowned designer, he collaborates with numerous companies—glassware, porcelain, lighting, furniture—while pursuing a highly personal artistic exploration of the unique object. His pieces, often large-scale, combine chamotte stoneware, varying thicknesses of material, understated glazes, and deliberate surface imperfections. Far from industrial perfection, Casenove embraces cracks, roughness, and firing marks as signatures, “the art of the imperfect object,” which has contributed to his international success.
