"Sculptor Bohumil REZL, born on 17/09/1899 in Czechoslovakia, arrives in Paris in 1926.
He settles in Villenauxe (French department of Aube), and works in the faience factory till 1951.
He was a passionate of astronomy and spoke several languages.
His sculpture production is now sought after."

B. Rezl created a few art deco ceramic clock models, often signed "B. Rezl" (see photo below);
Below are the ones to be seen in our Museum in Brussels.
They were probably produced in the late thirties.
