Lovely Pedestal Vase in Olive Green Glazed Ceramic

About the Item

This mid-century ceramic piece from the 1950s showcases a striking olive green glaze, indicative of the Vallauris pottery tradition in southern France. The design features a smooth, rounded form that tapers slightly as it rises, with a subtle shine enhancing the richness of the color. The base is elevated on a small, glossy pedestal, providing balance and an elegant silhouette. The glaze’s depth and texture, from matte to gloss, give the vase a refined, timeless aesthetic, capturing the era’s modernist trends. This particular piece represents the craftsmanship of Vallauris, a region renowned for its ceramic production during the 20th century. The simplicity of the form, combined with the lush, earthy tones, makes this vessel both a functional object and an artistic statement, perfect for any mid-century modern collection. Very good condition. More information Upon Request.
