Alexandre Bigot first studied science. This is how he obtained a degree in physics in 1884. He also has a doctorate in chemistry and was interested in creating enamels similar to natural gems at an early age.]. After a brief stint in the workshop of Beyer (1873-1945) in Switzerland, he settled in Aunay. In the year 1889, like many artists of his generation, he was marked by the oriental ceramics he discovered at the Universal Exhibition of 1889. Among these artists is Jean Carries, who, like him, has his own studio and is researching ceramics. The two artists maintained a correspondence about their respective research concerning ceramics and Bigot showed a keen interest in Carriès' research.
His skills as a chemist will earn him collaborations with numerous artists. He then developed an important activity in the production of architectural ceramics while continuing to produce his own works. We owe him in particular the stoneware of Villa Majorelle, the decorations of Castel Béranger in Guimard as well as numerous collaborations with Lavirotte.
