H 47,5 cm

Pieter-Jozef Laigneil (1870-1950) started his own pottery company in Kortrijk in 1898. The 'Kortrijksche Kunstpotterij' grew steadily. Up to 30 workers were employed there. Artists such as Emmanuel Viérin, Victor Acke and Jozef De Coene provided designs. The catalogue had 1155 models. After the First World War, the demand for art pottery – a luxury product – had decreased sharply and in 1926 the pottery closed its doors (link).
