The Dammouse brothers specialized in stylized floral motifs in the manner of Japanese prints. Their delicately drawn flowers were filled in with polychrome colors in low relief, sometimes outlined in gold. After years of working for others at various factories, the ceramicist Albert-Louis Dammouse and his painter brother Édouard-Alexandre opened their own workshop in Sèvres, where they focused on artistic pottery, porcelain, and glass.
