French Decorative Ceramic Wall Plaque with Three Figures by Les Argonautes 1960s
By Les Argonautes
Located in London, GB
French vintage decorative ceramic wall plaque with three figures, by Les Argonautes, Vallauris, France (circa 1960s). A refreshingly naive and charming piece depicting three men in olden robes and hats. It is up to the viewer to decide who they represent.

It is in good condition. Hanging string on rear. Upon request a video may be provided.
