The production of ceramic pieces with crystallization decorations, an admirable encounter between art and science, had its heyday at the very end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. The Faience of Sarreguemines has not escaped this fashion, as evidenced by the pieces that have come to us.
From the understanding of this technique, through the history of its creation and dissemination, the researches carried out attempted to contextualize the sarregueminoise production, while drawing the inventory of our current knowledge on it. Because the history of crystallizations does not end with the cessation of production at the Sarreguemines Faience, we also wanted to extend our talk to the current history of this technique by showing examples of contemporary creations.
