During World War II, Jouve was captured by the Germans, escaped from a camp and took refuge at his step parents home in a potters village in the South of France called Dieulefit. During that period, Jouve learnt from the local potter's traditions. He created <span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(51, 0, 0);font-size:130%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold;">decorative objects modeled in clay</span></span> and inspired by the religious figurines that were common in that region. In 1944, Jouve opened his studio in Paris and was invited by<span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(51, 0, 0);font-size:130%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold;"> Jacques Adnet</span></span> to participate in the exhibitions of the Compagnie des Arts Francais.
