About the Artwork

Henri Matisse began work on La Perruche et la sirène (The Parakeet and the Mermaid) in the spring of 1952. It is a colorful piece of large-scale artwork measuring a towering 11 feet tall and 25 feet long. Meant to evoke a lively tropical garden, in the original piece, you can find the parakeet on the far left and the figure of the mermaid on the top right.

about the collection

Museum-Worthy Dinnerware

Bold, playful and full of life, The Matisse Collection brings the work of Henri Matisse to East Fork pottery through a deeply personal collaboration with Les Héritiers Matisse. An ode to the great-grandfather of East Fork Founder and CEO Alex Matisse, the collection translates some of the artist’s most celebrated works onto familiar East Fork forms.

A closer look

Behind The Collection

"When I founded East Fork,it was a deliberate choice to leave Matisse out of the name. The legacy of my great-grandfather had followed me around for 20 years and I wanted out. I had a feeling that if I tucked myself away in the woods, something was going to emerge and it would free me. And so many years later, I slowly welcomed him back in.” - Alex Matisse
